In 1919, Florence E. Tabor ran for the New York State Assembly for the 11th District. The New York Tribune lauded her campaign as "energetic" and reported that she could upset the Republican Party, which had historically held the 11th District. She was born in 1875 in New York. She graduated from New York University with the degree of Bachelor of Commercial Science, under which title she wrote an article called "Social Unrest" for the Christian Intelligencer. The article was published in the January 7th, 1920 issue; it described the social movements of suffrage in England and prohibition in the United States.
