Women

Do you know if women voted? (Act got “royal assent” in June 1902). MBG02 (talk) 12:49, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not in 1902. It was The Constitution Amendment Act 1903 (gained Royal Assent in February 1904) which gave women electoral franchise in Tasmania by changing "man" to "person". --Canley (talk) 13:32, 2 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
