Starting in 2015, Saudi Arabian women will legally be allowed to vote, but
not drive to the polls.

In 2011, Abdullah, the king of Saudi Arabia at the time, granted Saudi
Arabian women the legal right to vote in 2015. Previously, women in Saudi
Arabia could not vote or run for office. Although this was an important
step in women's rights in the country, Saudi women are still not able to do
many things. As of 2015, Saudi women cannot drive and they need permission
from their husband or another male guardian to work, marry or divorce. They
are also required to have a male chaperone to leave their house and travel.
