Who voted when women in the US were not allowed to vote?

Before women could vote, the voters were mostly wealthy white men and land-owners; eventually any white men who were citizens could vote. This was gradually expanded after the Civil War, to allow black men to vote, but this was more theory than fact in some parts of the country-- while black men could and did vote up north, in the south, many obstacles and barriers were thrown in their way, making it nearly impossible for them to vote. It should also be noted that while many states would not let women vote till the 19th Amendment became law in August 1920, other states did give women some voting rights in state and local elections. Some western states like Wyoming let women vote as far back as the 1870s, and other states like Colorado and Utah gave women voting rights in the 1890s. But women could not vote in federal elections (for president) until 1920.

If you are asking about the United States, women received the right to vote in federal elections in 1920. But long before that, some states gave women the right to vote for governor, state senators, mayors, etc. One of the first places to grant women voting rights was the territory of Wyoming, in 1869. Women got the right to vote in several other western states, including Colorado in 1893, and Idaho in 1896.
