Final Jeopardy Explanation – Friday, March 17 2023

The Wyoming Territory passed a law granting women the right to vote in 1869, making it the first area in the country to do so.

Local officials there remained steadfast in their commitment to suffrage even when it later threatened their petition for statehood. They warned Congress that they would prefer to remain outside the Union for a century than allow women to join, and Congress eventually caved and allowed them in in 1890.

Through a telegram from Joseph M. Carey, who would later become governor of Wyoming, the Wyoming legislature informed Congress that “We will stay out of the Union a hundred years rather than come in without our women.”
