It Takes a Candidate serves as the first systematic, nationwide

empirical account of the manner in which gender affects political

ambition. Based on data from the Citizen Political Ambition Study,

a national survey conducted on almost 3,800 'potential candidates',

we find that women, even in the highest tiers of professional

accomplishment, are substantially less likely than men to

demonstrate ambition to seek elected office. Women are less likely

than men to be recruited to run for office. They are less likely

than men to think they are 'qualified' to run for office. And they

are less likely than men to express a willingness to run for office

in the future. This gender gap in political ambition persists

across generations. Despite cultural evolution and society's

changing attitudes toward women in politics, running for public

office remains a much less attractive and feasible endeavor for

women than men.
