Poll question: Greatest Current Female Representative |
|
Edited on Sun Nov-16-03 06:30 PM by mndemocrat_29
With Jennifer Granholm currently leading the greatest female governor poll (though I am not alone among DUers who are looking forward to Gov. Kathleen Blanco) and Barbara Boxer elected the favorite senator, I was wondering who everybody's favorite female representative was. I can only post nine in the poll, so here's a list of the rest of the Democratic female representatives (if I missed any, please tell me):
Shelley Berkley Madeleine Bordallo Corrine Brown Lois Capps Julia Carson Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick Donna Christenson Susan Davis Rosa DeLauro Anna Eshoo Jane Harman Eleanor Holmes Norton Darlene Hooley Eddie Bernice Johnson Marcy Kaptur Zoe Lofgren Nita Lowey Denise Majette Carolyn Maloney Carolyn McCarthy Karen McCarthy Betty McCollum Juanita Millender-McDonald Grace Napolitano Lucille Roybal-Allard Linda Sanchez Jan Schakowsky Hilda Solis Ellen Tauscher Nydia Velazquez Diane Watson Lynn Wooley

4. I really want to vote for Carol Mosley-Braun |

...but, Dean is my man. He's from my homestate. Maybe she'll be VP.
