Smart Girl Politics is a grass roots organization that promotes the
opinions and principles of conservative women. We are dedicated to
the advancement of conservative women in all levels of government.
Men are more than welcome to join.
History
Smart Girl Politics (SGP) started as a blog in July of 2008. In
November of 2008, Stacy Mott, Founder and President of SGP, placed
a help wanted ad on her blog asking for conservative women to join
her in a new conservative women's movement. Within a week, she had
60 emails from women who wanted to get involved.
Once the group decided to stick with the name that started it all,
Smart Girl Politics, they grabbed the name in every form they could
find on the internet. Finally, a home was found here on the ning
site where one of the fastest growing and hottest organizations on
the internet began to take shape. Many of the women in leadership
positions for SGP were some of those first to respond to the ad,
including Co-Founder and Executive Director, Teri Christoph.
