History

A woman unique in history, Emma Smith DeVoe was a nationally recognized organizer and leader in the suffrage movement. A conservative Republican, she worked as a speaker and organizer for the National Association of Women's Suffrage prior to moving to Washington State in 1905. She quickly became the President of the Washington State Equal Suffrage Association and is credited with winning the right to vote for the women of Washington in 1910.

Emma founded the National Council of Women Voters, the forerunner of today's League of Women Voters. After the successful passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920, Emma remained active in politics. She wrote a column "The Viewpoint of a Republican Woman" for the Tacoma News Tribune, and was selected as the first Elector on the Harding ticket. She was encouraged to run for Lieutenant Governor of the state of Washington, but declined, preferring to retire to her beautiful country home. In October 2000, she was honored with induction into the National Women's Hall of Fame.
