A Woman Registered to Vote Tea Towel

Girls just wanna have fun(damental human rights)! And finally, on the 26^th of August, 1920, women in the United States of America got them, when the 19^th Amendment was certified by the US Secretary of State and women were granted the right to vote. This tea towel is based on a poster produced in the same year, designed to be placed in a window so that passers-by would know that the resident had exercised her new-found right and registered the vote. The hope was that it would encourage others to do likewise – and it worked! On 2^nd of November that same year, more than 8 million women across the country assumed their responsibility of citizenship and voted in elections for the first time.
