Maggie&#8217;s List, a political action committee dedicated to increasing the number of conservative women elected to federal public office, has endorsed more than 50 female GOP candidates so far.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/a57.foxnews.com\/static.foxnews.com\/foxnews.com\/content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/640\/320\/Rep.-Maria-Elvira-Salazar-R-Fla..jpg?ve=1&amp;tl=1\"><\/p>\n<p>\n      Rep.
