Do you think Americans take voting for granted today? Why or why not

1 answer:

8 0

I think they do. I think I read something the other day, they ranked like 35 countries on voting turnout, and the US was 30, because of such a low % of voters. So I think that Americans undervalue voting shows up in the lack of people voting.

What was the idea behind citizen owning property in order to vote

Ksenya-84 [330]

<u>Answer:</u>

The idea behind citizen owning property in order to vote was that the Americans don't want to give recognition to people from other race or ethnicity.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In 1789, it was decided that only fair Americans above 21 years of age and have ownership of land will get the right to vote. It should compulsorily be noted that such elites constituted a very meagre population.

This was a discriminatory type of enfranchisement as it curbs the right to vote of black men and landless African Americans.
