“Vote NO on Woman Suffrage” 🙄

Not ancient , but just a century ago.

Source: State Archives of North Carolina

BECAUSE 90% of the women either do not want it, or do not care. BECAUSE it means competition of women with men instead of co-operation. BECAUSE 90% of the women eligible are married, and can only double on their husband’s votes. Because it can be of no benefit commensurate with the additional expense involved. Because in some states, more voting women than voting men will place the government under petticoat rule. Because it is unwise to risk the good we already have for the Evil which may occur.votes of women can accomplish no more than votes of men. Why waste time, energy, and money, without result? National Association opposed to Woman Suffrage, New York and Washington DC, post-1911. Equal Suffrage Amendment Coalition, Private Collections, State Archives of North Carolina
