It's always odd to me when people say that a word doesn't apply to the very thing it was invented to describe.

Meh, the meaning of words can change over time. Just look at the word "liberal."

Anyway I voted 1920, though I could see 1968 or somewhere in the 1820s/1830s (after the removal of property reqs for enfranchisement).
