Eleanor M. Stockman was a suffragist leader from Mason City, Iowa. She served two terms on the city school board. In 1918 Stockman was the Prohibition Party's candidate for State Superintendent of Public Instruction. Stockman worked on suffrage on both the local, state, and national levels, and was considered a highly effective fund raiser for the cause. In 1920, Stockman chaired "Get Out the Vote" work for the Democratic Party in Iowa's 4th District. Beyond her suffrage work she was also a trustee of the Mason City library association, and an officer of the Iowa state Templars of Honor and Temperance.
