I know all of you are probably tired of hearing about the election, I was up late last night waiting to hear President Obama's victory speech!:) I must say, I am so unbelievably proud and its amazing the amount of women that got elected into office and the various demographics they come from. The Huffington Post reported, Tammy Baldwin, of Wisconsin is the first openly gay women to serve on the U.S. Senate. In New Hampshire, it is now the first state being held by all female delegation (meaning a female governor, two female senators and two Congresswomen). In the U.S. Senate, 20 women elected and 81 women in the U.S. House. Tulsi Gabbard, was the first Hindu elected to Congress. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii was the first Asian American women elected to the Senate.
