National Women’s Political Caucus Endorses Leslie Coolidge for IL-06 2012 Candidate for the House of Representatives committed to Women’s Rights Friday, May 4, 2012 – The National Women’s Political Caucus (NWPC) proudly endorses Ms. Leslie Coolidge to represent Illinois’s 6th District in the House of Representatives.  Her experience as a Certified Public Accountant has given her a unique perspective on fiscal policy while her background as a member of the middle class has given her the ability to understand her constituents. “Leslie Coolidge has a unique background and viewpoint that will be beneficial in Congress.  She will use her experience and intelligence to make progress in the House,” said President Linda Young.  “Her position on women’s issues is on point with NWPC, and we are thrilled to see Leslie running for a seat in the House.” Leslie is an avid environmentalist and believes that the environment must be protected.  She is also committed to protecting women’s rights as well as protecting the American economy and American jobs. “Ms. Coolidge would be an asset in Congress.  I believe that she will stay true to her values and represent women, NWPC, and her constituents while serving in the House,” said Vice President for Political Planning Donna Lent. The NWPC is a national, non-partisan, grassroots membership organization dedicated to identifying, recruiting, training and supporting women candidates for elected and appointed offices at all levels of government. www.nwpc.org

Leslie Coolidge Wins the Primary! On March 20, Leslie became the Democratic nominee for the Sixth Congressional district with 54.4% of the vote! Leslie would like to thank all of the volunteers who made her victory possible.  We began with an electorate that was very confused about their new district and unsure there was even a Democratic primary this year.  Thousands of phone calls were made and friends contacted. Without that help, the result might have been different. Now Leslie's campaign begins to win the general election in November.  Leslie must convince Democrats and independent voters that she offers a better alternative to our current representative in Congress. Please consider volunteering now to help Leslie.
