Roosevelt backs woman suffrage in platform pledge
Theodore Roosevelt announced support for women's suffrage and a platform plank for the Republican national convention. In Chicago, Taft loyalists clashed with Roosevelt supporters as California's Fourth district contest sparked disputes over delegation seating. Johnson refused to appear before the committee, calling the process a theft of votes. The Roosevelt front won California by about 70,000 votes. Taft backers claimed district rules, while Roosevelt loyalists argued the committee sought to override the public will.
