Effect of the Vote of Women on Legislation

Effect of the Vote of Women on Legislation

This booklet is "an investigation in the equal suffrage states made in Dec., 1913, by 'The Evening Sun,' of New York City, and Brought up to the end of the legislative session of 1915." This report investigates the following questions: 1) "Do women who have the vote vote?" 2) "What laws have their votes passed?" and 3) "Is woman suffrage considered a success by the States that have it?" In summary, the results of this investigation were "Women who have the vote do vote. Their ballot has already passed a considerable body of law. The suffrage States seem to be satisfied to have women go on voting."
