[8] It is interesting, however, to note the following Electoral
Disabilities for women in England and Wales, which, however, do
not exist in Scotland or Ireland:--
No married woman can vote in any Town Council election or in any
County Council election outside London.
No woman owner has any right, in virtue of her ownership, to
vote in any local election. Until 1894 women owners, as such,
were entitled to vote in Poor Law Guardian elections, but the
Local Government Act of that year disfranchised them, while
enlarging the voting rights of men owners.
No woman lodger can vote in any local election, although men
lodgers can vote in District and Parish Council and Guardian
elections, and in the election of the London County and London
Borough Councils.
For women there is no service franchise--such as entitles men to
vote in District and Parish Council and Guardian elections, and
in the election of London Borough Councils--_i.e._ no occupation
of a dwelling as an official or servant (for example, as matron
or caretaker) entitles a woman to be placed on the Register.
For neither men nor women is there any ownership franchise,
lodger franchise, or service franchise for Town Council
elections or for County Council elections outside London.
