Question

After women in New Mexico won the right to vote, how did New Mexico’s state offices change?

Answer 1

Answer:

The state offices saw more women contesting and getting elected

Explanation:

The women in New Mexico and women in other American states were not allowed to vote in elections prior to the 19th amendment of the constitution by the United states government.

Due to the love of the people for Adelina Otero Warren she was appointed as by Alice Paul to lead the state congressional union she succeeded in this position, because she helped bring to light the 19th constitutional amendment to be accepted and implemented by the New Mexico congress and this granted Women rights to vote in Elections and this voting rights granted women saw more women elected into state offices  

Answer 2

"Women were not allowed to vote in most elections. People with intellectual disabilities were formally known as “idiots.”

Much has changed since New Mexico became a state, but discriminatory language from its old election laws has survived.

On Wednesday, however, the state Supreme Court ruled 5-0 that two constitutional amendments intended to update the state election code will finally take effect, years after they were approved by New Mexico voters. The justices rejected a state agency’s claim that ballot questions from 2010 and 2014 needed 75 percent approval, finding that a simple majority sufficed.

As a result, school districts no longer are prohibited from holding elections at the same time as other nonpartisan elections for offices such as mayor and city councilor. The other amendment, meanwhile, replaces laws banning “idiots” and “insane persons” from voting and ensures convicted felons’ right to vote after they have completed their sentences."                                                   .                                                                                               from:http://www.santafenewmexican.com/news/local_news/new-mexico-supreme-court-affirms-amendment-ending-ban-on-idiot/article_bccc0ead-49e3-5d69-85d9-2dc48d42e064.html
