Christina Wolbrecht is professor of political science, director of the Rooney Center for the Study of American Democracy, and Mr. and Mrs. C. Robert Hanley Director of the Washington Program at the University of Notre Dame. Her areas of expertise include American politics, political parties, women and gender, and American political development.

Much of her work focuses on women voters since suffrage. Her recent book with J. Kevin Corder, Counting Women's Ballots: Female Voters from Suffrage Through the New Deal (Cambridge 2016), uses new data and novel methods to provide insight into whether, how, and with what consequences women cast their ballots in the first five presidential elections following suffrage. Their next book, A Century of Votes for Women: American Elections Since Suffrage (Cambridge in early 2020), describes and explains women voters in the first century since the Nineteenth Amendment.

Professor Wolbrecht and David Campbell have an on-going and published line of research on adolescent girls, women as political role models, and the post-2016 Resistance. Professor Wolbrecht is also the author of The Politics of Women's Rights: Parties, Positions, and Change (Princeton 2000), which examined and explained the Democrat's and Republican's evolving positions on women's rights issues in the postwar period. Additionally she has co-authored articles on topics including the representation of women and party position-taking on education policy.

Starting in July 2019 she became a co-editor of the journal Politics & Gender. She is a founding Executive Board member for WomenAlsoKnowStuff, an initiative to support and promote female experts in political science.
