Women
In the period 1800-1832 in Britain, only male property owners could vote. This means that a significant portion of the population, including women, most men, and the poor, were excluded from voting. This was known as a property qualification system.
Prior to 1832, voting in England was limited. After the reform act of 1832, voting in the boroughs were broadened dramatically.
In 1832, the British Parliament extended suffrage through the Reform Act. This act extended voting rights to the middle class by increasing the size of the electorate. It abolished "rotten boroughs" with few voters and redistributed parliamentary seats to more populous urban areas. However, the Act did not extend suffrage to all citizens, as it still excluded women, the working class, and those without property.
