On Saturday, August 26 - the anniversary of US women's suffrage - dozens of women will spend the day in a fitting way: campaigning to win their primaries. Forty must win in September to break the record for major party nominations of women.
Washington - On Saturday, August 26, as the 19th Amendment giving US women the right to vote turns 86, several dozen women will mark the day in suitable style. They will be out campaigning for their party's congressional nominations in primary elections next month.

This year, more than 230 women - including 65 incumbents - have filed for party nomination to the House or Senate, according to the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey.
