Women’s Vote
Soon the entire country will be casting their vote in the next presidential election, but it won’t even be 100 years since we were all able to do so. Over 100 years after it was founded, women were still denied the right to vote at the federal level by the government despite mass protests. It wasn’t until Congress voted on the measure in 1920 which granted the “right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.” In another interesting political fact, the vote was so close it all came down to a critical juncture in the Tennessee capitol.
