Is the future of Utah women in politics on the upswing? Samuel Benson © Photo illustration by Alex Cochran, Deseret News When Seraph Young cast a ballot in a municipal election on Feb. 14, 1870, in Salt Lake City, she instantly made history. Never before had a woman voted in the United States under a law that afforded her the same suffrage rights as a man. And while the Wyoming Territory passed a suffrage law the previous December, Utah women by way of a measure signed just two days prior to the Feb. 14 city election were the first in the nation to cast ballots. Six months later, on Aug. 1, thousands of Utah women voted in the general election for the first time.
