County Clerk brings staff to see suffrage exhibit

As Monmouth County Clerk, Christine Hanlon is responsible (among many other things) for tallying the votes and certifying the results of our elections. So her interest in suffrage is understandable. On August 6, she brought three young women from her office to the Museum for a tour of “Votes for Women: New Jersey and Beyond.”

Christine is actively promoting celebrations of the centennial of the 19th Amendment. She’s compiling a brochure of events and exhibits (including ours) to be distributed throughout the county. And she’s invited us to install a mini-exhibit in the display case at her main office in Freehold In January.
