Recovered Expert<p>“Women of the West were the first in the United States to enjoy full voting rights. As new territories and states organized, many considered, and most granted, women the right to vote. Decades before passage of the 19th Amendment, western women voted and served in public office. In the diverse West, woman suffragists campaigned across mountains, plains, and deserts, finding common cause with a variety of communities and other political movements.”<br><a href="https://www.nps.gov/articles/woman-suffrage-in-the-west.htm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">nps.gov/articles/woman-suffrag</span><span class="invisible">e-in-the-west.htm</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/woman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>woman</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/suffrage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>suffrage</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USA</span></a></p>
