Your spelling still sucks ted. While you're here and avoiding losing another point, post for us the history of women in the democrat party. You should be proud democrats allowed women in their party over 50 years after republicans. nfrw.org 1854 Three women attend the founding meeting of the Republican Party in Ripon, Wis., and women actively campaign for Republican presidential candidate John Fremont. 1860 Journalist Jane Grey Swisshelm becomes known as the "mother of the Republican Party" in Minnesota. Republicans win the White House for the first time with the election of Abraham Lincoln, whose campaign was aided by prominent women such as suffragist Elizabeth Cady Stanton. 1860s Anna Dickinson of Pennsylvania becomes the "star" of the Republican Party by campaigning in state and national races across the country. 1872 The first official recognition of women in a major party platform appears in the Republican Party platform. 1876 Sara Andrews Spencer, who ran a school of penmanship with her husband in Washington, D.C., becomes the first woman to address a committee at the Republican National Convention when she presents a "woman suffrage memorial" written by Susan B. Anthony. 1878 At the request of Susan B. Anthony, Sen. A.A. Sargent (R-CA) introduces the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Congress.
