Abstimmung im US-Repräsentantenhaus über den 19. Verfassungszusatz, der Frauen das gleiche Wahlrecht einräumt

Florida and Texas have always been egalitarian states.

Usual suspects on the wrong side of history, as per usual.

It’s always the usual problem children.

Staten Island never disappoints

The gerrymandering looks more moderated, it’s still there, but imagine if it didn’t get as bad as we have it now.

I wonder why Milwaukee, Cincinnat?

Seriously for all the MAGA f*cks who want their own country, just cut Louisiana through South Carolina out of the nation. Let it is circle the drain into a third world impoverished country.

Well look at that, exactly who we thought. But WTF Wisconsin?

The south always wants those people to count for representation but not let all those people vote.

One of those weird situations where opposite ends agree.

On the higher class end, a big reason for the push for women’s right to vote is to maintain high class dominance in politics. Generally speaking, higher class households theoretically had a higher chance of both spouses being able to vote (having childcare, plus potential poll literacy tests). In the South, for example, the women’s suffrage movement excluded black women. Woman’s Suffrage in the south really was meant to maintain Jim Crow.

On the other end, you get places like Wyoming, where the lack of women in general was a problem. There’s also advocates for fatherless households, since the original idea was that a woman’s vote was her influence on her husband (The original only landowners vote thing that got replaced for the sake of renters during the Jacksonian era is usually construed as the founding fathers wanting to make sure only those invested in an area voted, but there’s a one household one vote aspect to it too.).

The South was never properly punished.

Ironic that the reps from Rochester voted no….right where Susan B. Anthony lived.

Kind of wild how sharp the state borders are. Arkansas-all yes, Mississippi-all no. Alabama, Georgia, almost all no. Tennesee, almost all yes.

„Aww horsewaggles! We’re on duh wrong sahd uh hist’ry agayn“

*It’s always the ones you most expect.*

The South has seemingly always been on the wrong side of every single issue. Glad I don’t live there. Shame that they don’t learn.

Repeal the 19th

It’s gone downhill since then

Households should get a vote

It still boggles my mind looking at old maps and having to remind myself that California and Texas used to be less populous than Ohio. Crazy how deindustrialization just gutted that whole part of the country in just a few decades.
