Did Edmund barton give white women the right to vote?

Edmund Barton, as Australia's first Prime Minister, played a role in the establishment of the Commonwealth franchise, which granted voting rights to women in federal elections in 1902. This legislation allowed white women to vote and stand for election, making Australia one of the first countries to achieve this. However, it is important to note that Indigenous Australians, including Indigenous women, were largely excluded from these voting rights until much later.
