In a constitutional amendment in 1894, what region of Australia was the first to grant voting rights to women?
Answer South Australia
After a constitutional amendment passed in 1894, women became eligible to vote in South Australia, making it the first region to grant voting rights to women. The Womanhood Suffrage League of New South Wales submitted a petition in 1897 calling for women's rights in New South Wales, Tasmania, Victoria, and Western Australia. The result in Western Australia was the granting of voting rights to women in 1899.
