The battle for the presidency has been between two white men - Donald Trump and Joe Biden

But we've also seen women elected in unprecedented numbers, from Vice President-elect Kamala Harris to a record number voted into Congress 👇

[Thread]

bbc.in/36oQsXp
A record 135 women will sit in Congress (where US laws are made) in 2021

Women will occupy over a quarter of 535 seats. That's 25.2% (103 Democrats, 32 Republicans) and it could rise higher

ℹ️ Rutgers University's Center for American Women and Politics

bbc.in/36oQsXp
What’s caused this increase in women?

Partly, there are more candidates running. A record 318 women ran as Democratic or Republican candidates

That’s up from the previous record of 257 set in 2018
