Vida Goldstein

Vida Jane Mary Goldstein was an Australian suffragist and social reformer. She was one of four female candidates at the 1903 federal election, the first at which women were eligible to stand. Goldstein was known both for her public speaking and as an editor of pro-suffrage publications. Despite her efforts campaigning for women's suffrage in Victoria, it was the last Australian state to implement equal voting rights, with women not granted the right to vote until 1908.
