SUFFRAGE RIGHTS OF
FOREIGN BORN WOMEN
EXPLAINED By BOWMAN

The suffrage rights OF foreign born
women are defined in an opinion writ
ten by Attorney General Harry s.
Bowman. In answer to queries from
John Baron Burg OF Albuquerque.
Three questions are answered by the
assistant attorney general:
|. May woman whose husband
has taken out citizenship papers vote
without having applied for citizenship
>. May foreign born woman VINO
has become the wife Of natural
citizen vote?
3. May foreign born woman who
came to the United States prior To the
nineteenth amendment vote?
The opinion follows
Il. Your first interrogation is: May
II woman whose husband has taken out
citizenship papers vote without her.
self having applied for citizenship
Our answer 10 this Is in the mega.
tive. Section |. Article VII of the con
StitutiOn Of the state of New Mexico
prescribes that voter must b. citi-
zen Of the United States, and IL has
been held that person is not nat.
NlAlLtil NlAll NV lldN iNttiNfi
his final naturalization papers. The
husband, therefore. not being a citizen
of the United States, the wife is not
qualified TO vote as n citizen until her
husband has also acquired such right
by virtue Of the laws Of the state.
80 Your second inquiry is: May n
foreign born woman who has become
the wife Of n natural citizen of the
United States vote AT the general cleo
tom
This question should be- answered In
the affirmative. A woman takes the
citizenship of her husband, and II the
husband Is citizen of the United
States. either natural or naturaliZed
she acquires the same rights that hC
does under the nineteenth amendment
Ia the constitution of the United States
- Your second question involves
the right Of foreign born woman who
came 10 the United States prior to The
issuance Of the proclamation Of The
adoption Of the nineteenth amendment
! but who has not taken out citizenship
papers. Ia vote at the coming election.
This question must he answered IN
! the negative. \ woman does not &c
uuire citizenship unless she either he
comes naturalizcd or marries II either
of the United States. and in the cast
you mention. she has done neither. Not
being citizen of the United States
under the provisions Of the section OF
the constitution above mentioned. she
does not acquire the right to vote The
