A team of female truck drivers began a westward journey Aug. 31 to honor the legacy of the first woman who voted. The drivers gathered beside the Capitol Reflecting Pool in Washington, D.C., to commence their trip from the nation’s capital to Wyoming to commemorate Louisa Swain, who became the first woman to vote when she cast a ballot in Laramie in 1870. This year also marks the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote. Four captains from America’s Road Team will operate a specially wrapped tractor-trailer, emblazoned with an image of Swain. The truckers will stop in Baltimore, Columbus, Ohio; Dayton, Ohio; Indianapolis; St. Louis; Denver and Cheyenne, Wyo. They will complete the trip Sept. 6 in Laramie to mark the anniversary.
