We’ve waited 240 years for this! Hillary Clinton accepted the democratic party’s nomination for president of the United States of America #DNCinPHL

Jessica O’Connell is executive director of Emily’s List, the nation’s largest resource for women in politics. The organization has been instrumental in electing democratic women to local, state and federal offices. Now, this includes women for president of the United States.
