"Ten of the twelve states that by 1916 had adopted women's suffrage were carried by Wilson in the election that year; without women's votes, Wilson would not have been reelected" is TRUE.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Actually Wilson had held a rather unenthusiastic attitude towards women's voting rights during his period of first term (1913-1917). He was captured at outdoor to White House in 1917 by suffragists, who verbally abused him for giving mere lip service to their cause.

President Woodrow Wilson delivered a speech to Congress on September 30th, 1918 in favor of ensuring women' rights to voting. Although a 19th constitutional amendment granting women voting rights was passed by the House of Representative.
