In 1872, [[Victoria Woodhull]] ran for President of the United States. While many historians and authors agree that Woodhull was the first woman to run for President of the United States, some have questioned that priority given issues with the legality of her run. They disagree with classifying it as a true candidacy because she was younger than the constitutionally mandated age of 35. But election coverage by contemporary newspapers does not suggest age was a significant issue. The presidential inauguration was in March 1873. Woodhull's 35th birthday was in September 1873.

Revision as of 23:02, 30 July 2016

The following is a list of female U.S. presidential and vice-presidential nominees and invitees. Nominees are candidates nominated or otherwise selected by political parties for particular offices. Listed as nominees or nomination candidates are those women who achieved ballot access in at least one state (or, before the institution of government-printed ballots, had ballots circulated by their parties). They each may have won the nomination of one of the US political parties (either one of the two major parties or one of the third parties), or made the ballot as an Independent, and in either case must have votes in the election to qualify for this list. Exception is made for those few candidates whose parties lost ballot status for additional runs.

In 1872, Victoria Woodhull ran for President of the United States. While many historians and authors agree that Woodhull was the first woman to run for President of the United States, some have questioned that priority given issues with the legality of her run. They disagree with classifying it as a true candidacy because she was younger than the constitutionally mandated age of 35. But election coverage by contemporary newspapers does not suggest age was a significant issue. The presidential inauguration was in March 1873. Woodhull's 35th birthday was in September 1873.

In 1884, Belva Lockwood was the first woman (or second, depending on one's opinion, after Victoria Woodhull) to run for President of the United States. Her running mate was Marietta Stow.

Two women have won the vice-presidential nominations of major parties, Geraldine Ferraro for the Democratic Party in the 1984 election, and Sarah Palin for the Republican Party in the 2008 election. As of now, Hillary Rodham Clinton is the only female to have ever won the presidential nomination of a major party.[1][2] The first woman who was considered for a presidential candidacy by an incumbent President was Oveta Hobby by Dwight D. Eisenhower; he encouraged her to run in 1960, but she did not run.[3]

In 1972, Shirley Chisholm became the first major-party black candidate for President of the United States, and the first woman ever to run for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination.[4] In the 2008 Democratic presidential primaries, Hillary Clinton became the first woman to be listed as a presidential candidate in every primary and caucus nationwide.[5] Despite losing the nomination in a close race against Barack Obama, Clinton won more votes in 2008 than any primary candidate in American history. Eight years late, on July 26, 2016, she officially won the Democratic presidential nomination.[6][7]

Presidential candidates

This list includes female candidates who have run or are currently running for President of the United States sorted by the amount of votes they received during their run. If the candidate did not win their party's nomination (therefore not qualifying for the general election) but still received over 30,000 votes during the primaries, those votes are listed instead of general election votes.
