Title

Harriot Stanton Blatch Campaigning for Right to Vote

Description

Harriot Stanton Blatch, seated in a touring car, with her daughter Nora at the wheel, campaigns for extending the vote to women in presidential elections. "Women vote for President in Wyoming and Colorado! Why not New York?" First considered and achievable goal by the Women's Political Union, the fight for this limited suffrage was abandoned in favor of an all-out campaign for a comprehensive amendment to the Constitution.
