None.
Explanation:
Long before the 19th Amendment was sent to the states for ratification, more than 30 states allowed women to vote, if not fully then partially.
If anything, WWI slowed down the process until the war ended. But in reality, the passing of the 19th Amendment was more of a formality by 1919 when it was fully ratified.
