It is utterly fitting that we should have a woman VP in the centenary year of the 19th Amendment.

And VP-elect Harris was wearing suffrage white tonight.

Not sure but I think she was already in The Senate the time all the Democratic (and maaaybe a few Republican) women wore white in the Senate Chambers for some (it's very late here I forgot what) women's issue.

I remember seeing them on TV late news ? 2018.
