DESCRIPTION:This paper provides new evidence on why men and women leaders m
 ake different choices. We first use a simple political agency model to illu
 strate how voters' gender bias can lead reelection-seeking female politicia
 ns to undertake different policies. We then test the model's predictions by
  exploring leaders’ responses to COVID-19. Assuming that voters expect po
 licies to be less effective if decided by women\, the model predicts that f
 emale politicians undertake less containment effort than male politicians w
 hen voters perceive the threat as low\, while the opposite is true when vot
 ers perceive it as serious. Exploiting Brazilian close elections\, we find 
 that\, early in the pandemic\, female mayors were less likely to close non-
 essential businesses and female-led municipalities experienced more deaths 
 per capita\, while the reverse was true later on\, once the health conseque
 nces materialized. These results are exclusively driven by mayors facing re
 election and stronger in municipalities with greater gender discrimination.
