Baby's First Presidential Election

 

Well done, sister suffragette! 💙

Vote Local!

We voted today. Did you?! xo

Well Done, Sister Suffragette!

This is the first time that early voting has been an option in Massachusetts, and I am so glad to have been able to take advantage of it! Ballot cast, Sister Suffragette sung (as is our tradition) and off we went! xo

On Election Day

As applicable now as it was then (1915). Get out there and vote! xo

"Well Done, Sister Suffragette!"

We're clearly soldiers in petticoats
And dauntless crusaders for woman's votes
Though we adore men individually
We agree that as a group they're rather stupid!

Cast off the shackles of yesterday!
Shoulder to shoulder into the fray!
Our daughters' daughters will adore us
And they'll sign in grateful chorus
"Well done, Sister Suffragette!"

From Kensington to Billingsgate 
One hears the restless cries!
From ev'ry corner of the land:
"Womankind, arise!"
Political equality and equal rights with men!
Take heart! For Missus Pankhurst has been clapped in irons again!

No more the meek and mild subservients we!
We're fighting for our rights, militantly!
Never you fear!

So, cast off the shackles of yesterday!
Shoulder to shoulder into the fray!
Our daughters' daughters will adore us
And they'll sign in grateful chorus
"Well done! Well done! 
Well done Sister Suffragette!"
