NFDW Congratulates Women Voters and History-Making Women Behind “The Blue Wave”

OLIVE BRANCH, MS – The objective of the National Federation of Democratic Women (“NFDW”), in part, is to encourage full participation of women in every level of the Democratic Party Structure. On November 3, 2026, history was made across the nation as women voted in huge numbers to stop the eroding of Democratic principles in the United States.

And leading the charge was NFDW members, who took the organization’s mission to heart and worked relentlessly within their states to bring in “The Blue Wave” at the voting booth. Women are now poised to assume a variety of state and federal roles such as Attorney General, Sheriff, Secretary of State, State Treasurer, State Commissioner of Insurance, U.S. Representative, U.S. Senator and Governor. Along with qualified Democratic women elected to office, the “Blue Wave” also brought in a new wave of history!

NFDW National President, Lovie West, stated, “We are thrilled that women with a real intent and passion to serve the people will occupy high level positions of leadership in state and federal government. When the NFDW gathered for its 55 th Annual Convention in Las Vegas, Nevada in June, hundreds of women shared their plans to turn their state blue. And they did! California, Georgia, Minnesota and New Mexico will have women governors with varied backgrounds and nationalities lead their states under the Democratic banner. We applaud the NFDW 35 member states and their respective membership on their resounding success in voter outreach that resulted in powerful voter action.”

NFDW will continue its mission to unite women of the Democratic Party at its NFDW 56th Annual Convention. It will be held June 3-5, 2027 in Somerset County, New Jersey.
