Voting for the Devil.

- Abstract
The article discusses the significance of the women's suffrage campaign in Franklin County, Ohio in 1914. Said campaign illustrates the unequal worth of the social capital of suffragists. It describes social capital as an analytic metaphor that demonstrates the value of social networks and alliances to politics. The author cites the negative effect of the effort of suffragists to use their social capital to urge the male voting public to extend suffrage to women. The success of the 1919 suffrage campaign was attributed to the 1914 campaign.
