List of female United States presidential and vice-presidential candidates
- List of female United States presidential and vice-presidential candidates
The following is a list of female U.S. presidential and vice-presidential nominees. Nominees are candidates nominated or otherwise selected by political parties for particular offices. Listed are those women who achieved ballot access in at least one state. They may have won the nomination of one of the US political parties (either one of the major parties, or one of the third parties), or made the ballot as an Independent, and in either case must have votes in the election to qualify for this list. Exception is made for those few candidates whose parties lost ballot status for additional runs.
Not included in the first two tables are women who lost a nominating convention or primary election for their party's nomination (or who have not yet completed that process), write-in candidates, potential candidates (suggested by media, objects of draft movements, etc.), or fictional candidates. The third table excludes all but the foremost.
Two women have won the nomination of a major party, both as vice-presidential candidates: Geraldine Ferraro for the Democratic Party in the 1984 election and Sarah Palin for the Republican Party in the 2008 election.
