South Carolina ranks last in the nation in terms of women in public office. South Carolina is the only state in the union with a single gender Senate. In the current Legislature, there are 16 women members of the House of Representatives, meaning just 8.8% of the Legislature is female. Barbara Rackes, President of The Rackes Group and Board Member of the Southeastern Institute for Women in Politics talks about "Mission 2012" and the goal of electing more women than ever before to political office.
