Trivia Week 1

Question

When the United States Constitution was signed in 1787, women in some states lost the right to vote. What state allowed women to vote as early as 1776? This was the only state that allowed women to vote after the Constitution was signed.

Answer

New Jersey

Additional Information

New Jersey’s first constitution in 1776 gave voting rights to “all inhabitants of this colony, of full age, who are worth fifty pounds and have resided within the county for twelve months.” Only single women could vote because married women could not own property.
