Ivy A.M. Cargile (B.A. California State University, Fullerton; M.A. and PhD Claremont Graduate
University) is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at California State University,
Bakersfield. Broadly, her research interests focus on political behavior in the U.S. context. She is
particularly interested in how the intersections of gender, race, and ethnicity affect the electoral
behavior of both political elites, and the electorate at large. Specifically, she is interested in how
diverse political participants perceive a Latina candidate who represents the intersection of
gender, and ethnicity. Likewise, she explores how both Latina political actors, and other female
politicians of color influence policy outcomes, and represent their constituents. She also focuses
some of her research on the public opinion of Latina/o/x voters as a way to develop a better
understanding about how policy issues such as immigration, and women's rights affect the
participation of this community. Her work has appeared in Political Research Quarterly, as well
as in multiple books on the topics of Latina politicians, Latina/o/x voters, and immigration policy.

Denise Davis (B.A. University of Redlands; MSc London School of Economics) is the Director of
the Women's Resource Center at the University of California, Riverside. Denise has spent her
career working in Student Affairs and teaching Gender and Sexuality Studies in higher education.
She is passionate about issues pertaining to social justice advocacy, gender equity, the LGBTQ
community, and women's political participation. In 2017, she launched the inaugural Persist
Women's Political Engagement Conference at the University of California, Riverside, which was
the first of its kind in the region. The 300-person event brought together students, scholars,
elected officials, and those who work in the non-profit arena with a focus on inspiring women to
get more involved at every level of government. Denise is a 2018 graduate of the Emerge
California program, is active in her community as an elected assembly district delegate for the
Democratic Party, and was elected to the Redlands City Council in 2018.
