And the results? For the first time in the history of these United States, the proportion of women in the House of Representatives jumped out of the teens (19 percent) to reach 23 percent; the U.S. Senate gained one percentage point to reach 24 percent. More: Mickey Mouse, Jeb Bush and Jesus: Write-in voters in Escambia, Santa Rosa make a statement The Florida Legislature will begin its 2019 session with 49 women — 37 in the House and 12 in the Senate — moving that needle from 26 percent to 31 percent. Out of 61 elected offices in Escambia County, including circuit judges who preside in Escambia, women will now hold 22, a gain of two offices as Ann Hill joins two other women on the Pensacola City Council and Lacey Powell Clark is installed in February as a new circuit judge. In Santa Rosa County, out of 64 elected offices women will now hold 17, a net gain of two offices. Gulf Breeze City Councilwoman Renee Bookout chose not to run for re-election, leaving the council with one woman in office. Though our local percentages look good in comparison with congressional and state numbers, we have some glass ceilings to break through. It’s been too long since women served on the county commission in the two counties and in the Florida House, and women have yet to make it to the U.S. House District 1 seat, Florida Senate and the office of Mayor of Pensacola. It was also a particularly interesting election cycle for the institute as our significant membership growth this year — we now have more than 100 members — included a number of men who ran for U.S. House, Florida House, Escambia County and Santa Rosa County commissions, Pensacola mayor (three) and Pensacola City Council. While our mission is laser-focused on the advancement of women into elected and appointed positions, an ancillary component of that mission is the fostering of collegiality and civility among all who enter into public service.
