Susan B. Anthony's Defiant Vote in 1872 Rochester Presidential Election Led to Arrest
Nov 5, 2024, 11:28 AM
On November 5, 1872, suffragist Susan B. Anthony defied the law by casting a vote in the presidential election in Rochester, New York. She was subsequently arrested and charged with 'knowingly voting without having a lawful right to vote.' This act of defiance occurred during an election that saw incumbent President Ulysses S. Grant running against Liberal Republican Horace Greeley. Susan B. Anthony's actions were a significant moment in the women's suffrage movement, highlighting the struggle for women's voting rights, which were not granted until 1920.
