When I first came to EMILY's List a few months ago, I have to admit that I didn't know a whole lot about Governor Jennifer Granholm. As a New Yorker, I didn't spend too much time reading up on Michigan politics. But as my internship here comes to a close, I'm grateful that I've had the opportunity to learn about the fabulous women EMILY's List has helped to elect over the past 25 years, including Gov. Granholm.
