Nancy Pelosi Voted Most Stylish Female Politician (PHOTOS, POLL)

First Posted: 08/16/2010 12:17 pm   Updated: 05/25/2011 5:20 pm

Two weeks ago, the Huffington Post and apparel company Weatherproof® asked readers who they considered the most stylish female politician. The poll received 17,455 votes, and Armani-loving House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was declared the winner.

In the men's category, which received a comparatively paltry 5,847 votes, President Obama was voted most stylish.

Here are the results, starting with most to least stylish, based on the candidates we presented. Do you agree with the ranking? Who did we leave out?

1. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
2. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius
3. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
4. Rep. Mary Bono (R-CA)
5. Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm
6. Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA)
7. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY)
8. Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin
9. Representative Michelle Bachmann (R-MN)
10. Senator Mary Landrieu (D-LA)

And check out the results of the Style vs. Substance Survey here.


Here's the winner!

In addition to her unquestionable stylishness, her service to country is commendable. Kudos to Nancy!

She looks great, especially to have had so many lil ones.

Can you imagine what the haters would be saying if she were the female equivalent of, oh, Denny Hastert, or Tom Delay?

What I like the most is that she proves that suits (even those w/pants) don't have to look masculine on powerful women. There is a feminine flair to everything she wears, be it a scarf, a ruffled jacket, bold jewelry, high-heeled boots or just the color (violet, white). Always classic and age-appropriate, but never boring. Rock on, Madame Speaker!

Speaker Pelosi has a very soft, elegant style which compliments her assertiveness as House Speaker. Her style is lovely and suits her so well.

But even better is Congress member Rosa Delauro's purple and multi-colored pantsuit in the background of picture number 4. Now there's a woman showing some truly risky, individual style. Her style is very cool, it says "I'm not afraid to stand up and stand out." Right on!

If I recall, Pelosi says her husband selects her clothes.

This proves that the liberal kool-aid crowd can't make an objective decision that is not party based. Anyone who sincerely thinks that old hagg Pelosi is more stylish than Bono or Bachman is just plain blind.

Kind of ironic, considering you chose two Republicans to make your point. Or were you actually being facetious? Thank you for the morning laugh.

Liberal-shmiberal. This is a purely non-partisan, shallow poll based on looks alone and the photos provided at the time. Take it up with the HP writer if you don't like what was provided as "style" examples.
