Question 8 • United States History and Geography

Which of these marked the achievement of a long-held suffragist goal in the early 1900s?

Answer
A
Catt’s “Winning Plan”
B
the Declaration of Sentiments
C
the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution
D
the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution

Explanation

The Nineteenth Amendment, ratified in 1920, prohibited denying the right to vote on the basis of sex, achieving the suffragists’ long-held goal of women’s voting rights. Catt’s “Winning Plan” was a strategy to secure that right, not the achievement itself. The Fifteenth Amendment addressed voting rights regardless of race, and the Declaration of Sentiments was an earlier statement of women’s rights.
