EMILYs List Endorses Four Women Leaders for Reelection to the New Hampshire Senate
Today, EMILYs List, the nation’s largest resource for women in politics, endorsed four women leaders for reelection to the New Hampshire Senate. Stephanie Schriock, president of EMILYs List, released the following statement:
“EMILYs List is thrilled to endorse these four women leaders, who are running in tough seats, for reelection to the New Hampshire Senate. While Democrats hold the majority in the chamber, it is critical that we expand the number of pro-choice Democratic women serving in the legislature who will deliver for the people of New Hampshire and hold Governor Sununu accountable. These four state Senators have consistently fought for women and families, and EMILYs List is proud to stand with them in their bids for reelection.”
EMILYs List endorsed the following slate of candidates for reelection:
Shannon Chandley (SD-11)
Melanie Levesque (SD-12)
Cindy Rosenwald (SD-13)
Donna Soucy (SD-18)
EMILYs List, the nation’s largest resource for women in politics, has raised over $600 million to elect pro-choice Democratic women candidates. With a grassroots community of over five million members, EMILY's List helps Democratic women win competitive campaigns – across the country and up and down the ballot – by recruiting and training candidates, supporting strong campaigns, researching the issues that impact women and families, and turning out women voters to the polls. Since our founding in 1985, we have helped elect 150 women to the House, 26 to the Senate, 16 governors, and nearly 1,100 women to state and local office. Nearly 40 percent of the candidates EMILYs List has helped elect to Congress have been women of color. During the historic 2017-2018 cycle, EMILYs List raised a record-breaking $110 million and launched a record independent expenditure campaign. We helped elect 34 new women to the House, including 24 red-to-blue victories; enough seats to have delivered the U.S. House majority alone. Since the 2016 election, more than 50,000 women have reached out to EMILY's List about running for office laying the groundwork for the next decade of candidates for local, state and national offices.
