ACitizens eighteen and older can vote
BCitizens who own property can vote
CCitizens who pay a tax can vote
DCitizens born in the country can vote
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Citizens eighteen and older can vote
1. Four amendments deal with the question of who is allowed to vote.
2. One of them sets the voting age: citizens eighteen and older can vote.
3. Another says you do not have to pay a poll tax in order to vote.
4. A third says any citizen can vote, women and men alike.
5. A fourth says a male citizen of any race can vote.
6. Property ownership, tax payment, and place of birth are not conditions any of the four amendments set, so those three options are wrong.
