Depends which country you are talking about. New Zealand gave women voting rights first, followed by Australia and then finally the worst country in the world, the USA.

Was there only one? I thought they had the right to vote in lots of countries. In the United States women secured the right to vote with the passage of the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution. This occurred is August, 1920.
When women were given the right to vote in Australia it gave them a sense of equality and fairness. They were accepted into their country and now had the same rights and freedoms as men.
The official state nickname of Wyoming is "The Equality State".The Wyoming Territory (and later State) was one of the first places in the world to give women the vote. It was also the first State to elect a female Governor, with Nellie Taylor Ross being elected in 1924.

They started letting women vote in 1857! I looked it up in the state book! This is absoulutely correct!
Women in Wyoming gained the right to vote on December 10, 1869, when Wyoming's Territorial Legislature approved a revolutionary measure stating: "That every woman of the age of twenty-one years, residing in this Territory, may at every election to be holden under the law thereof, cast her vote."

woman's sufferage towards democratic equality in Australia for voting rights was split up by states. A basic time line is below: * 1894 - South Australia allows women to vote in State Elections (first voted in 1895) * 1899 - Western Australia follows SA example (First voted in 1901) * 1902 - NSW allows women to vote & the commonwealth franchise act is passed allowing women the right to vote in the federal elections * 1903 - Women vote in their first federal election (Dec, 16th, 1903) * 1905 - QLD allows women to vote * 1908 - Victoria allows women to vote. Keep note that back then the term "womens rights" did not include aboriginal women.They were given the right to vote in 1894.
it was constitutional for a state to pass legislation that gave women special protection in the workplace
