Women were given the right to vote under the 19th amendment to the U.S. Constitution. That amendment was ratified on August 18, 1920.
Women did not gain the right to vote until the 19th Amendment was passed by Congress 4 June 1919 and ratified on August 18, 1920. Until the 19th amendment was ratified and granted women the right to vote, they had no role in American politics.
In 1920 the ratification of the Nineteenth Amendment to the US Constitution said that women could not be denied the right to vote just because they are women.The actual words are:The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.Most people say that "women got the right to vote", but that is not really correct.Strictly speaking, no-one in the US has a general Constitutional right to vote.The Constitution only mentions who will not be denied the right to vote.The right to vote is not mentioned at all in the original version of the US Constitution.
The Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution prohibits each state and the federal government from denying any citizen the right to vote because of that citizen's sex. It was ratified on August 18, 1920. The document "not to forget the ladies", which calculated each, slave as three-fifths an individual, entirely overlooked women. Comparable to Black people, women were well thought-out as "sub-human". Women were looked upon as second-rate to men. The lack of knowledge apprehended by Americans, portrayed logic of displeasure amongst the female population and began the suffragist movements. Women began to recognize that they needed to acquire their efforts on the Constitutional Amendment that would assure women equal rights in a male-dominated society.
Four different constitutional amendments extended voting rights to various groups:Fifteenth Amendment: Prohibited discrimination by race (applied primarily to African-American males), ratified in 1870.Nineteenth Amendment: Granted women's suffrage (right to vote), ratified in 1920.Twenty-third Amendment: Allowed citizens residing in the District of Columbia the right to vote in presidential elections, ratified in 1961.Twenty-sixth Amendment: Reduced the minimum voting age from 21 to 18, allowing younger people the right to vote, ratified in 1971.
