As I was reading Colorado election tweets this Election Day morning, I thought this was apropos for our #midterms22. History Colorado is a treasure in our state and runs a number of museums throughout the state.
This election day story can be found on their web page titled The Road to the Vote.
x Today (Nov. 7), in 1893, Colorado became the first state to enact women’s suffrage by popular referendum, 27 years before it was nationally recognized. Learn more at

It’s been a long road in our country for women's equal rights. By this time in my life, it saddens me that we…
Did not pass the Equal Rights Amendment
Did not codify Roe v. Wade
Still have an Equal pay day in March for all women but in October for Latina women
I am optimistic that women will make a difference in our election today. I read in a diary comment late last night, “do you really think women are going to vote against their rights because the price of a gallon of milk is 50 cents more?”
