The dramatic inside story of the rise of women in elected office over the past quartercentury, from the pioneering founder of threemillionmember EMILYs List one of the most influential players in todays political landscapeIn 1985, aware of the neartotal absence of women in Congress, Ellen R. Malcolm launched EMILYs List, a powerhouse political organization that seeks to ignite change by getting women elected to office. The rest is riveting history: Between 1986 when there were only 12 Democratic women in the House and none in the Senate and now, EMILYs List has helped elect 19 women Senators, 11 governors, and 110 Democratic women to the House. Incorporating exclusive interviews with Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Tammy Baldwin, and others, When Women Win delivers stories of some of the toughest political contests of the past three decades, including the historic victory of Barbara Mikulski as the first Democratic woman elected to the Senate in her own right; the defeat of Todd Akin (legitimate rape) by Claire McCaskill; and Elizabeth Warrens dramatic win over incumbent Massachusetts senator Scott Brown. When Women Win includes Malcolms own story the high drama of Anita Hills sexual harassment testimony against Clarence Thomas and its explosive effects on womens engagement in electoral politics; the long nights spent watching the polls after months of dogged campaigning; the heartbreaking losses and unprecedented victories but its also a pageturning political saga that may well lead up to the election of the first woman president of the United States.

This book had some great insights on women's political involvement. However, I felt it could have dived deeper into some of the challenges women face. Still, it was a good read and I learned quite a bit!

Empowering and educational!
Absolutely loved 'When Women Win'! It’s powerful to read about the stories of women making waves in politics. As someone who follows political news, I found the content relevant and enlightening. I’d definitely recommend it to friends!

A must-read for anyone interested in politics
I picked up this book after hearing about Emily's List and found it incredibly inspiring. The way it explores the rise of women in American politics is both eye-opening and motivating. It really made me appreciate how far we've come and how much more we can achieve!

Disappointed with the content
I wanted to love this book, but I struggled to connect with the writing style. Some key stories felt rushed, and I was hoping for more depth. Not the best investment for me, sadly.

Had higher expectations
I was excited to read this book, but honestly, it didn’t live up to the hype for me. Some sections felt repetitive. It's not bad but could use more varied perspectives on women's roles in politics today.
