In Wisconsin, female politicians aim to turn the state blue

A record number of women are running for office this year, with more than 3,300 winning major party nominations for state legislature seats. NewsHour Weekend in the spring asked Republican women in the deep red state of Indiana about their motivation. Now, Zac Schultz of Wisconsin Public Television poses the same question to Democratic nominees there.
