The voters have spoken, and they have chosen @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris to be our next president and vice president.

It's a history-making ticket, a repudiation of Trump, and a new page for America.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this happen. Onward, together. pic.twitter.com/YlDY9TJONs

This election is about so much more than @JoeBiden or me. It’s about the soul of America and our willingness to fight for it. We have a lot of work ahead of us. Let’s get started.pic.twitter.com/Bb9JZpggLN

2020年に幕を閉じた安倍政権の看板の一つは「女性活躍」だった。しかし現在の菅義偉新内閣20人のうち女性はわずか2人。これは国会の男女比そのままだ。2021年には、菅政権下で初めての衆院選挙が行われる見通しだ。候補者の人数を男女均等にする努力を政党に義務付ける「候補者男女均等法」制定から初めての総選挙。政治の現場のジェンダーギャップは、どうすれば埋めることができるのだろうか。
