Women's suffrage in Australia
Det första valet till parlamentet i det nybildade samväldet Australien 1901 baserades på vallagarna i de sex federala kolonierna, så att kvinnor som hade rösträtt och rätt att kandidera till parlamentet på koloninivå (numera delstatsnivå) (dvs. i South Australia, Nordterritoriet och Västaustralien) hade samma rättigheter i det federala valet i Australien 1901. År 1902 antog Samväldets parlament den enhetliga Commonwealth Franchise Act 1902, som gav kvinnor som var 21 år eller äldre rätt att rösta i val till det federala parlamentet. Delstaterna gav snart kvinnor över 21 år rösträtt: New South Wales 1902, Tasmanien 1903, Queensland 1905 och Victoria 1908.
1902
Women's suffrage in Australia
The first election for the Parliament of the newly formed Commonwealth of Australia in 1901 was based on the electoral laws of the six federating colonies, so that women who had the vote and the right to stand for Parliament at a colony (now state) level (i.e., in South Australia including the Northern Territory and Western Australia) had the same rights for the 1901 Australian federal election. In 1902, the Commonwealth Parliament passed the uniform Commonwealth Franchise Act 1902, which enabled women 21 years of age and older to vote at elections for the federal Parliament. The States soon gave women over 21 the vote: New South Wales in 1902, Tasmania in 1903, Queensland in 1905, and Victoria in 1908.
