In 2024, 70% of the nearly 77,000 elections across the United States went uncontested 🤯 this year, there are 100,000 offices up for election–this could be your moment to take the leap!. (Sources: @ballotpedia + @BallotReady).

Running without a party affiliation: running as an independent at the federal level can be challenging, but many local positions are nonpartisan, meaning you don’t need a party affiliation.

Running for office is too time consuming: running for office takes time and dedication, but that’s not to say that it’s utterly unmanageable. There will never be a “right” time to run, but it’s the right time if you care about your community and want to make a difference.

Politics is dirty: many Americans hold a negative view of politics and politicians–but that’s why we need you! We need more everyday Americans who understand the problems that their communities face and want to solve them. Voters like real, authentic people.

Not feeling qualified: here at She Should Run, we often say, “if you care, you’re qualified.” You don’t need a certain degree, background, or tons of money to run for office–just to meet the age and residency requirements! Trust us when we say: You have what it takes. 💪.

When it comes to running for office, many women have the same questions–and the same reasons why they think they shouldn’t run. Let’s break some of them down 🧵.

Last year, nearly half of the world’s population had a major election–yet 27 new parliaments now have fewer women than they did before the elections. In fact, in nearly ⅔ of countries where results have been confirmed, the number of women elected fell.

Third, support women in your community who are running for office. Volunteer for their campaigns, attend their rallies, and talk to your neighbors about candidates you believe in. If we want to see more women in office, we need to support them when they run!.

Second, think about running for office yourself. You don’t have to think as big as Congress–there are 500,000 elected positions across the country, most of which are local. Chances are, there’s a role that is a fit for you!.

First, encourage a woman (or two or five) in your life to consider running for office. Our research shows that one of the best ways to motivate a woman to take on elected leadership is for people in her life to tell her that she should run!.
