33 feathers on The Lily’s election night mural

We live-painted a mural over the course of election night that depicts an eagle representing the 184 women who were first-time candidates for congressional or gubernatorial seats, or sought a higher office in Congress. Each time a female candidate won her seat, a feather was colored in. The final product will convey exactly how many non-incumbent women were elected to office. This time-lapse reflects 33 feathers – the results that came in before 2 a.m. Wednesday.
