Most people know women across the U.S. gained the right to vote in 1920 after the ratification of the 19th Amendment. But Arizona actually got there first. 👀👇 Just months after becoming a state, Arizona voters approved women’s suffrage in November 1912 — giving women the right to vote eight years before it became law nationwide. The measure passed with nearly 68% of the vote and made Arizona one of the early leaders in the movement that would eventually reshape American democracy. It’s one of those Arizona history facts that somehow never gets talked about. Did you know Arizona was ahead of the rest of the country on this? 🤔 Via National Archives #Arizona #ArizonaHistory #ArizonaFacts #WomensHistory #DownInnaDesert
