It's not just a few pink pussyhats,????? ?????? ??????? ?????? ???????? ?????? ??????? a handful of marchers, #MeToo posts, or women launching political campaigns -- a huge surge of women is getting involved in politics. A movement is here.
SEE ALSO: Trump was a disaster for women in 2017. It may be his undoing.After the one-year anniversary of the inaugural Women's March on Washington, Timemagazine's cover this week features 48 of the record-breaking number of women running for political office in the aftermath of the 2016 presidential election, whether for governor, Congress, state legislature, or school board.

Accompanying the cover is Charlotte Alter's piece about the influx of first-time female candidates, primarily in Democratic districts. But also the huge spate of women running for office in general. Some stats include:
79 women are looking to run for governor in 2018
41 women are running against Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives, up almost 350 percent
29 women won seats in Virginia's House of Delegates in 2017 -- a record, according to the Center for Public Integrity
The off-year elections of 2017 gave a preview of what's to come with the 2018 midterm election. Women, minorities, and LGBTQ candidates won big in what appeared to be a response to the election of Donald Trump the year before.
Alter wrote extensively about the preponderance of women campaigning, fighting, and winning to represent the country. "Call it payback, call it a revolution, call it the Pink Wave, inspired by marchers in their magenta hats, and the activism that followed."
