Making #Herstory with Christy Smith: You would never tell a man he doesn't look like a real politician


Listen Later

We’re back for Season 2! This season we are conducting one-on-one interviews with women running for office, in office or who have run for office. We are kicking off the first episode with former California State Assemblywoman for the 38th District Christy Smith who learned the in-and-outs of running for federal office when she was a candidate for U.S. House of Representatives. While she didn’t win, she experienced the good and bad of being a woman in politics, from not looking like a candidate to having to defend her passion for politics.
