text: The Petticoat Revolution was the name given by some contemporary newspapers to the December 5, 1916, municipal elections in Umatilla, Oregon, United States, in which seven women led secret campaigns to gain control of most town government offices. After successfully capturing the mayorship and a majority of council seats, the female-led administration implemented several infrastructure reforms with the intention of reversing the town's decline into disrepair.
