The NRCC added 14 new candidates to its "Young Guns" program and promoted 15 of its Young Guns to "Contender" status.
However, the Boston Phoenix notes that of the 14 added, one is a woman; of the 15 promoted, one is a woman.
"There are now four women in the program, out of 64 candidates. That's an even lower percentage than the current female makeup of Republican House members -- which is below 10%."
