Which of the following, if true, most seriously undermines the conclusion given? (A) Last year the proportion of women incumbents who won reelection was smaller than the proportion of men incumbents who won reelection. (B) Few women who run for state and national offices run against other women. (C) Most women who have no strong desire to be politicians never run for state and national offices. (D) The proportion of people holding local offices who are women is smaller than the proportion of people holding state and national offices who are women. (E) Many more women than men who want to run for state and national offices do not because they cannot get adequate funding for their campaigns. ANS: E
