Final answer:
The second woman mayor of a major US city was Dorothy Lee in Tacoma.
Step-by-step explanation:
The second woman mayor of a major US city was Dorothy Lee, but the question does not specify which city she was the mayor of. However, we can gather information from other sources to answer the question. Bertha Andes became the first woman mayor of a major US city in Seattle. The answer choices provided in the question are A) Portland, B) Spokane, C) Vancouver, and D) Tacoma.
By process of elimination, since Seattle is located in Washington state, we can rule out A) Portland and C) Vancouver, as they are located in Oregon and Canada respectively. This leaves us with options B) Spokane and D) Tacoma, both of which are cities in Washington state. Since Spokane is not 172 miles away from Seattle, the answer is D) Tacoma.
