In celebration of Women's History Month, Women's Voices. Women Vote is honoring women in the blogosphere, through our Women's Voices Making History contest.
We're inviting people to nominate their favorite female bloggers through March 21. After the nominating period, we will list the top 10 female bloggers at www.wvwv.org and ask you to vote for your favorite.
Check out the form and vote for your favorite blogger today, and encourage your readers to do the same. We've created a button for your site that will take your readers directly to the voting form.
Click here to nominate your favorite female blogger today!
The email didn't limit nominations to political blogs, so here are some of my favorite Philly area female bloggers (other than myself), political and not:
Political Bloggers
A Smoke-Filled Room / ACM
Suburban Guerilla / Susie
Factesque / eRobin
Non-political Bloggers
Apartment 2024 / Marisa
The Cranky Professor / Cranky
Young Philly Politics has several strong women's voices but I don't know what the rules are for group blogs.

I can't tell you how honored I am to have made your list. I am totally tickled, thanks so much!
Voters in PA need to take a hard look at both campaigns here for the Democrats from a very real standpoint. Voters need to ask themselves some very important questions and be honest with themselves about their answers.
1. Which campaign has demonstrated the organization, leadership, inspirational motivation, overwhelming grassroots growth, and consistency of message since Iowa?
2. With content of character being at the very core of Democratic values, which campaign is truly committed to genuine transparency, advocating full disclosure of any and all monetary sources (ie. where did a spare $5,000,000 come from?)
3. Which candidate is truly less polarizing and has the greatest ability to reach across party lines in Congress to actually get things done in Washington?
4. As a Democratic voter, does it matter if one campaign destroys another with all out negativity, essentially arming Republicans with damaging political ammo and a more likely victory for Republicans in November? (While it may be fair, is it ethical?)
5. Which candidate offers the clearest contrast to the current administration appealing to the overwhelming sentiment that where we are is not where we want to be?
6. While it doesn't necessarily affect the political process here in the U.S. - does it matter to you that there is overwhelming International support for one of these candidates and do you think that this support might ultimately strengthen the U.S. alliances worldwide?
Open, honest answers to these questions should help decide what our country says to world as the largest free Democracy.
It should be noted that most of the entire country had no idea who Barack Obama was 1 year ago and looking over the growth and support graphs over the past few months should be a clear indicator as to where the U.S. wants to go.
Best of luck to both campaigns. This is a remarkable time. Let's try to focus on bringing people together to get this done in November.
Marisa,
My pleasure. And good luck to you and Scott on that new joint venture of your.
