Abstract

Women candidates Gender stereotypes
Public opinion about the appropriate place for women in the political world has evolved dramatically over time. This chapter employs data from an original survey of voters in 2010 to examine voter attitudes toward women in American politics, their gender stereotypes, and whether they are willing to vote for women candidates.
