Dayami · Answer 1

The correct answer is A: "More women in the West had the right to vote".

Explanation:

Women in the West were the first ones to suffrage in the United States. Nearly every state in the West Coast welcomed the women's right to vote before the East Coast states. In 1869, Wyoming was the first state to grant this voting right and the first woman to vote was Louisa Ann Swain of Laramie on September 6th, 1870. On the other hand, it was in 1917 when New York became the first eastern state to grant women their right to vote.
