Women's Suffrage In The United States
In the 1700's to early 1800's New Jersey did allow Women the right to vote before the passing of the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, 19th Amendment, but in 1807 the state restricted the right to vote to "...tax-paying, white male citizens..." Women's suffrage, legal right to vote was established in the United States over the course of more than half a century, first in various U.S. states, states and localities, sometimes on a limited basis, and then nationally in 1920 with the passing of the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, 19th Amendment. The demand for women's suffrage began to gather strength in the 1840s, emerging from the broader movement for women's rights. In 1848, the Seneca Falls Convention, the first women's rights convention, passed a resolution in favor of women's suffrage despite opposition from some of its organizers, who believed the idea was too extreme. By the time of the first National Women's Rights Convention ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
