  That's well below the national average of 72.7 cents in the same year, said Beth Willinger, director of the Newcomb College Center for Research on Women at Tulane University.Louisiana is forty-ninth in the nation, falling from forty-eighth six years ago, though the gap did close in value, but only negligibly.Wyoming is the worst and Washington DC is the best.
  
  The report isn't without some good news for women languishing in the state of Louisiana
  
  Women can start their own businesses, Willinger said, an option that an encouraging number of Louisiana women are taking to heart.

  In Closing the Gender Wage Gap: How are Louisiana Women Doing?, supporter Beth Willinger, Ph.D., executive director of Newcomb College's Center for Research on Women at Tulane University, writes Louisiana ranks 48th in the nation in the pay disparity between the genders.
  
  The reasons are hard to pin down, she says, but could stem from the slow entry of Louisiana women into the work force and the fact a high percentage end up in low-paying jobs.She also points out only 8% of women in the state earn $50,000 or more, compared to 14.5% of women nationally.

  The exceptional numbers could be attributed to the current makeup of residents living inside city limits, which seems still to be mostly male, said Beth Willinger, executive director of Newcomb College Center for Research on Women at Tulane University.
  
  "I do think that the reason we're seeing so many women voting absentee is that we're still seeing so many women absent," she said."Look around.Until schools come back, I think there are a lot of men who are here by themselves."
  
  Willinger also noted the propensity of traditionally male jobs in town, including high-paying construction positions, as well as the dearth of child-care options, for keeping women away.
  
  Despite high early turnout by women, Brylski and Willinger noted that women are remarkably absent at the front of the race for mayor, though several female candidates running for City Council seats appear headed to the runoff.
  ...
  Willinger also said that for decades, Louisiana women have preferred to flex their political muscle behind the scenes.They've turned out overwhelmingly at the polls, she said, and also have taken to grass-roots activism, a role asserted recently by the Women of the Storm, the all-female group devoted to pressuring members of Congress to visit the storm zone and see Katrina's havoc firsthand.
  
  "To do this kind of activist, grass-roots kind of thing, they're making a difference," Willinger said.
