One of The demand for the vote by American women was first formulated in earnest at the Seneca Palls Convention in upstate New York in 1848. After the Civil War, agitation for women's suffrage increased. Suffragists Susan B. Anthony and Julia Ward Harris founded the National Women's Suffrage Association to work on the federal level. Lucy Stone created the American Women's Suffrage Association, which worked to secure the ballot through state legislation. In 1890, the two groups united to form the National American Women's Suffrage Association (NAWSA). While still a territory, Wyoming enfranchised women in 1869. The first state to enfranchise women was Utah in 1870; the second was Colorado in 1893. By 1920, women were voting in all the Western states except New Mexico. As the pioneer suffragists withdrew from the movement, younger women assumed leadership. One of the most astute was Carrie Chapmann Catt, who was named president of NAWSA in 1915. Another prominent suffragist was Alice Paul. Forced to resign from NAWSA because of her insistence on direct-action techniques, she organized the National Women's Parry, which used such tactics as mass marches and hunger strikes. Economics and the role played by women in World War I also contributed to the success of the drive. Women were surging into the workforce. In 1900, there were 3 million working women. By 1915, there were 8 million. During the war, women moved into jobs that had once been the province of men. In 1918, the House of Representatives passed the Nineteenth Amendment, which removed voting discrimination on the basis of gender. The Senate voted for it the following year. In August 1920, the amendment became law. The 1920 presidential election was thus the first in which women voted. Like men, they voted overwhelmingly for Warren G. Harding. 71.
