Alice Stone Blackwell argues that the issues of whether women should have the right to vote and whether they should work outside of the home are separate and unrelated. She also makes the point that the most successful governments are controlled by the largest number of voters.
The National American Woman Suffrage Association published a series of circulars written by well-known activists on the social, political, and economic reasons why women should be granted the right to vote. The circulars, along with novelties such as buttons, stationery, playing cards and other materials to advertise the suffrage movement were included in a mail-order "Catalog of Suffrage Literature and Supplies" produced by the NAWSA Literature Committee.
