Description:

In 1869, Wyoming Territory became the first jurisdiction in the United States to grant women the right to vote, a landmark decision that occurred well before the national ratification of the 19th Amendment in 1920. This progressive move was part of broader efforts to attract more settlers to Wyoming, demonstrating early support for women's suffrage in the American West.
