Do you know if women voted? (Act got “royal assent” in June 1902). MBG02 (talk) 12:49, 2 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

Not in 1902. It was The Constitution Amendment Act 1903 (gained Royal Assent in February 1904) which gave women electoral franchise in Tasmania by changing "man" to "person". --Canley (talk) 13:32, 2 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
