The results are in. State legislative races across the country have been decided, and 1,773 women will take the oath of office for state house and senate seats in January 2013, making up 24% of all state legislators (four state legislative races with at least one woman candidate remain undecided). More details on these results, including state rankings based on the percentages of women in each state legislature, are available in CAWP's most recent infographic.

CAWP has also posted state-by-state information on the women who will be serving in state legislative, statewide executive, and congressional offices in 2013.
