Different states might have had different suffrage because they all, as a state, had different opinions on who could have voting rights.
Different states may have varying suffrage requirements due to the U.S. Constitution allowing states to regulate their own election processes, leading to diverse interpretations and implementations of voting laws. Historical context, cultural values, and political priorities also influence these differences, as states may seek to enhance or restrict voter participation based on local sentiments or objectives. Additionally, legal precedents and state-specific legislation can shape the qualifications for voting, resulting in a patchwork of rules across the country.
It depends on how you mean. For example suffrage was won by women in various states at different times (e.g., Wyoming, 1869) yet nationally it wasn't until the 19th Amendment (1920) that women were allowed to vote throughout the nation (and states).
