Timeline of women's suffrage in Arizona

The first women's suffrage bill was brought forward in the Arizona Territorial legislature in 1883, but it did not pass.

In 1897, taxpaying women gained the right to vote in school board elections.

Suffragists from both Arizona and around the country continued to lobby the territorial legislature and organize women's suffrage groups.

In 1910, suffragists worked to influence the Arizona State Constitutional Convention, but were again unsuccessful.

However, Native American women and Latinas would wait longer for full voting rights.
