The 2012 Project is a national, non-partisan campaign to increase the number of women in legislative office. Learn more at the2012project.us We identify and engage accomplished women, including women 45 and older from underrepresented fields and industries. These include finance, science, technology, energy, health, environment, small business and international affairs. Outreach to women of color and diverse backgrounds will also be a priority. 2012 presents a once-in-a-decade opportunity for women to increase their numbers in office. Following the 2010 census, every congressional and state legislative district in the country will be redrawn, and new and open seats will be created. Reapportionment creates opportunity, and we know that women have more success winning open seats. By significantly increasing the number of women who run for office during the post-reapportionment election year, we can increase the number of elected women.
