The first general election for the House of Commons of the United Kingdom was in the year 1802. Henry Addington was appointed as Prime Minister by King George. Women did not vote. After that there were two more kings and ten more general elections, and still women could not be voters. After the death of William IV, there was a queen. During the reign of Queen Victoria there were fifteen more general elections, and still women could not vote. In the twentieth century there were three kings and a queen who could appoint prime ministers, and there were twenty-five general elections. In this century we have had seven prime ministers. Some women got a vote after 1918, and more after 1928. I can vote in this July. I am in a new constituency. I did not move house but I have changed constituency. The boundary jumped across the land, over my house. The time before I was in Truro and Falmouth, now I am in Camborne and Redruth.
