Answer:

After the Bull Moose Party supported women's suffrage, many politicians also began to support it. By 1918 both political parties were committed to suffrage. The 19th amendment was carried by the necessary 2/3 vote in the House of Representatives and in 1919 the Senate also passed it. After that, each state had a chance to ratify the amendment. In 1919 22 states had ratified it, but 14 more were needed, including New Mexico. New Mexico was the 32nd state to ratify the amendment. Only 4 more states were needed, Oklahoma, Washington, West Virginia and Tennessee were the last states.
