Page "Victoria Woodhull" Paragraph 32
from
Wikipedia
There is evidence that Woodhull received popular votes that were not counted.
Official election returns also show about 2, 000 " scattering votes.
" It is unknown whether any of those scattering votes were cast for her.
Supporters contend that her popular votes were not counted because of gender discrimination and prejudice ; critics contend the votes were not counted because they had other legal defects besides gender.
The first woman to receive an electoral vote was Libertarian Tonie Nathan, who received a vote for Vice President in 1972.
