CANDIDATE WEBSITES
WIRE is proud to have played a role* in working with so many of the almost 250 candidates running for nonpartisan offices in San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties in 2020. Below are the names and websites for some of these women who have requested that they be listed.
We invite others to help, promote, and/or support these women as they help change the gender inequity that has existed for too long in politics.
Not every woman can run for office herself, but we can all assist those who do.
