2008 test · Question 48 of 100
There are four amendments to the Constitution about who can vote. Describe one of them.
Official USCIS answers
- Citizens eighteen (18) and older (can vote).
- You don't have to pay (a poll tax) to vote.
- Any citizen can vote. (Women and men can vote.)
- A male citizen of any race (can vote).
Why this is the answer
The Constitution was amended four times to widen voting rights. These amendments lowered the voting age to 18, ended poll taxes, let women vote, and let men of any race vote.
💡 Memory tip: Remember the four: age 18, no poll tax, women, and any race.
