And four years before the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution granting American women the right to vote, a right known as women's suffrage, and was ratified on August 18, 1920, ending almost a century of protest.
Across the ditch and around the same time about 8.4 million women gained the vote. November 21 1918: the Parliament (Qualification of Women) Act 1918 was passed, allowing women to be elected into Parliament. But it was not until 1928 when Women received the vote on the same terms as men (over the age of 21) as a result of the Representation of the People Act 1928.
