No the movement began in New England as do many if not all social reformation movments in the US. Wyoming accepted this revolutionary concept and placed it into their territorial constitution. It became the blueprint for what could and should be adapted as the new standard of US Constitutional Law. The concept was almost ancient but the practical application was put into place in Wyoming. Wyoming was in the position to play a pivotal role in the suffarage movement and it met the challenge
