Doesn't matter. The fact remains that more Democrats were against extending the franchise to women than were FOR. Republicans? Exactly the opposite.

Same with Civil Rights legislation in the sixties. That's why I found your info so interesting.

As for the ERA, that one got stopped in its tracks because it was such a turkey. Badly written and wide open to creative abuses. I doubt it would pass TODAY even with half the country gone daffy and muddleheaded.
