Even if the 19th Amendment were repealed someday, individual states would still give women the right to vote.

Indeed ,,if you study the history of women’s suffrage, you will find that many individual states gave women the right to vote before the 19th Amendment mandated this nationwide.

Women in some states have the right to vote long before the 19th amendment, including some states that gave women the right to vote and certain elections. New Jersey gave women with more than $250. The right to vote in 1776, although they later took it back.

Why that's Crazy Talk! Crazy, I say.

That's like saying individual states would give illegal aliens the right to vote.

Oh. Wait.

I’m pretty sure most states already allowed women the franchise prior to the 19th being ratified.
