- Description
- Research of whether, how, and with what consequences women voted in the elections in the United States of America after women's suffrage was established in 1920 until the economic program the New Deal in the 1930s. The authors found that the extent to which women voted and which parties they supported varied considerably across time and place. Many women adapted quickly to their new right: others did not. In some cases, women reinforced existing partisan advantages: in others, they contributed to political realignment.
