Paper Summary:

This paper discusses the campaign for woman suffrage in Colorado. A brief overview of suffrage is given as a background to the topic. Then both the opinions of supporters and opponents of woman suffrage are presented. Finally, the primary reason why suffrage was granted is explained.

From the Paper:

"Woman suffrage is defined as the "right of women to share on equal terms with men the political privileges afforded by representative government and, more particularly, to vote in elections and referendums and to hold public office" ("Woman suffrage", 2005). This right to be involved in the governmental process, however, did not start with women. In the feudal regimes of the Middle Ages, even men found suffrage restricted. However, once the male population had secured their rights of representations, by way of the democratic revolutions of the 18th and 19th centuries, it then became possible for women to begin to organize their suffrage movements."
