Yet most women VPs bring policy expertise to the ticket—often complementing the profile of the presidential candidate. I provide examples of several women vice presidents who played active roles in their administrations, many of whom also served as cabinet ministers.

I also examine the credentials of women vice-presidential candidates compared to presidential candidates. As expected from a different and less prestigious position, women VP candidates tend to have less political experience than male presidential candidates.

The statistical models show that smaller and left-wing parties are more likely to nominate women as vice presidents. However, legislative gender quotas and the % of women in parliament do not show a diffusion effect on VP nominations.

The article focuses on the question: why do parties nominate women to the vice presidency? As traditional ticket-balancing approaches are insufficient, I build hypotheses using the literature on female representation in cabinets, legislatures, and the presidency.
