Although Ferraro was the first woman to be on a major-party ticket for one of the nation's highest offices, she was not the first woman to receive an [[electoral college|electoral vote]]. That woman was [[Theodora Nathan]], a [[Libertarian]] Vice Presidential candidate who got the support of [[Roger MacBride]], a [[Virginia]] elector who in 1972 voted for her instead of [[Spiro Agnew]]. However, Rep. Ferraro was the first woman to receive more than one electoral vote.
