	Suffrage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Universal suffrage is a counterintuitive term that does not actually apply to all citizens or residents of a region, but the extension of voting privileges is given without distinction to race, sex, belief, or social status.
		Women's suffrage was the goal of suffragists (commonly referred to as "Suffragettes"), who led a major Liberal and Democratic movement of the early 20th century, protesting vigorously for many years demanding equality with men and the right to vote.
		Equal suffrage is a term sometimes confused with Universal suffrage, although its meaning is the removal of graded votes, where a voter could possess a number of votes in accordance with income, wealth or social status.

	The 'race' question on the U.S. census is racist - why this is so and what to answer instead.
		According to the FAQ on the U.S. Census Bureau website, "the Census Bureau has included a question on race since the first census in 1790," (which they somehow seem to think justifies the continuation of this census question - we've been doing it for two hundred ten years, so it must be right?).
		Most notably, census data was used during the Civil War to identify the number of free and slave African-Americans prior to General Sherman's March to the Sea campaign and during World War II to identify the location of Japanese-Americans in the United States.
		In Census 2000, like in the 1990 census, the Hispanic origin question has a write-in line which is used to obtain write-in responses of Hispanic subgroups other than the major groups of Mexican, Cuban, and Puerto Ricans.

	Lalor, Cyclopaedia of Political Science, V.3, Entry 220, STATES: Library of Economics and Liberty
		While the constitution of the United States requires a decennial census, which is at intervals so far removed as greatly to lesson its value in a rapidly growing country but few of the states have made provision for taking a state census in intermediate years.
		The failure on the part of state legislatures to take an interest in a proper periodical census of their state resources, is to be attributed mainly to a spirit of false economy.
		Illiteracy, it has been widely claimed, should be a bar to suffrage, but this view has prevailed continuously in two states only; Massachusetts requiring that a voter shall have the capacity to read the constitution and to write his name, and Connecticut that he shall be able to read the constitution or statutes.

	Women’s suffrage
		Census data indicate a declining number of females employed in domestic service and primary production, and a moderate increase in the industrial, commercial and professional areas.
		Arguments for suffrage typically appealed to woman’s moral role as guardian of the home, suggesting that female suffrage would help civilize society at large and claiming conversely, in Goldstein’s words, that "stability of marriage and the home depend upon our having an equal standard for men and women." (Searle p.
		So the divisions between Labor and the suffrage groups should not be exaggerated; to some degree they reflected justified worker suspicions of the leading women’s rights figures; and to some degree they reflected the conservative aspects of each political current.

		So long as the suffrage is no[t] adult suffrage, but remains attached to property and taxation in the interests of the exploiting classes, so long will there be decisions of revising barristers and courts of appeal, who, by means of artificial interpretation of the electoral provisions deprive many proletarians of their vote.
		Woman Suffrage is necessarily bound up with the economic emancipation of woman from the household and her economic independence of the family on the strength of her activity as an earner.
		The value of the suffrage as a weapon in the social struggle is in inverse proportion to the size of the property possessed by the individual and the social power conferred by that property.
