Note

One of a subset of voter registration cards in the Hartford Voter Registration
Records Collection, representing women who registered to vote in 1920, between August and
November in the City of Hartford. Connecticut women acquired the right to vote for school
officials in 1893 and on library issues in 1909. They were granted full suffrage in 1920
through the 19th Amendment, which Connecticut was the 37th state to ratify. There are
approximately 180,000 voter registration cards in the Hartford Voter Registration Records
Collection, which contains checklists of voters and voter registration cards from the City
of Hartford for the 1840-2009 time period.
