PINK POLITICS Book Event Friday. Mobilizing Support for Three Cincinnati State Representatives

February 1, 2012

PINK POLITICS author Kathy Groob will be the featured speaker and will be signing books at Mobilizing Women 2012 event in Cincinnati Ohio on Friday, February 3rd, from 5-6:30 p.m. at the University Club.  Democratic women and a host group of dignitaries are mobilizing women supporters for three incumbent state representatives on the ballot this year.  Representatives Connie Pillich, Alicia Reece and Denise Driehaus will rally their supports to kick-off this year’s campaign season.

According to the Center for American Women & Politics, Ohio ranks 28th for the percentage of women in the state legislature with 22% female members.  Ohio has never had a woman serve in the U.S. Senate and has never elected a female governor.  In 1998 Lt. Governor Nancy Hollister served as governor for 11 days when her predecessor took U.S. Senate seat and the successor had not yet been sworn in.
