In 1992, a record 4 women won seats in the US Senate leading to the term 'Year of the Woman', a far cry from 2025 where 21 states are represented by women senators. The role of women in politics as voters, activists and politicians has changed dramatically over the past 30 years.

Adam Quinn is joined by Susan Banducci to discuss voting patterns, the male/female divide and trends across the globe. With women making up the majority of voters, our topics include: challenges facing women activists and politicians, trends in voting behaviour for conservative and liberal policies, and what might we see in the future?

We discuss it all here.
