The whole time I was reading this article the only thing going through my brain is how people really think that women don’t have the same opportunity to win an election as men do blows my mind. Men don’t win elections because they are men, they win because people like their insights on topics, not because they are men. Women don’t lose elections because they are women, they have lost elections before because the people just like another candidates’ ideas better. In the article Lawless said herself, "I did not lose because I was a woman. I lost because I was challenging a popular incumbent in the primary,". Coming from a women’s mouth herself, women don’t lose elections because of their sex. In the presidential running for 2016, there are two women running for president while there are over 10 men running for president. There are just simply more men that run in elections, if their were more women that ran a women could easily win an election if she had ideas that the people would like. I personally think the presidential candidate Carly Fiorina has a good chance of winning the presidential election because she brings great ideas to the table for this country. People will vote for her because of her ideas and what she can bring to this country, not because of her sex.
