Fannie Jacobs
Fannie Jacobs ran as the Socialist candidate from the 18th District for the New York State Assembly in 1918. In February of the year, the New York Call published an article entitled "Albany Women Hear Socialist," which described the popular reception of Jacobs' talk in Albany. Jacobs gave the speech "Women-Past, Present, and Future" to a large crowd, "forced to stand in the aisles" because the seats were filled.
