Suffrage Drive in Harris County Sets the Stage for 1918 Vote
In 1918 the Equal Suffrage Association backed Governor Hobby in exchange for a law allowing women to vote in primaries. A statewide Hobby Clubs campaign registered women, organized car caravans to the courthouse, and pressured employers for time off. By July 4, 1,289 white and 60 black women registered in Goose Creek, with traffic extended to July 11 and even July 4 to ease congestion. The July 27 primary saw Hobby win the Democratic nomination as women of all ages and occupations participated.
