y'all doing today?
>> desjardins: nancy mace is
running to be the rst south
carolina woman ever in congress,
and part of what some ho is a
gender shift for republicans.
both parties have gender gaps.
in the house of representatives,
88 democrats, or 38%, are women.
but it is a chasm for house
republicans, with just 13 women,
a tiny 7% of their ranks right
now.
>> thank you!
i appreciate it!
>> desjardins: enter mace and
new class of candidates.
she's a single mom who
represents the low country nea
charlestonn the state house
early in life as the first woman
to graduate from south
the citadel.t'itary institution
>>not just democratic
women that are breaking barriers
or breaking glass ceilings.
>> desjardins: a recor94
republican women are on the
ballot for the house of
representatives this year,
nearly double the number two
years ago.e
