Five women move from ‘On The List’ to Recommended
Today EMILY’s List announced that it is moving five women currently “On the List” to a full recommendation. These five women are the first 2012 House challengers to move from “On the List” to a full endorsement.
“Tammy Duckworth, Lois Frankel, Annie Kuster, Ann Kirkpatrick and Christie Vilsack represent five key districts to winning back the House next November,” said EMILY’s List president Stephanie Schriock. “These five strong Democratic women are running fantastic campaigns, getting voters energized and are eager to bring their voices to Washington. EMILY’s List couldn’t be more thrilled to throw our full support behind them help make 2012 another ‘Year of the Woman’.”
