The correct answer is The number of registered black voters in the South significantly increased.


The Voting Rights Act of 1965 ensured that black voters, especially in the South, got the opportunity to vote without having to overcome obstacles. Before this time, Southern states used literacy tests, grandfather clauses, and poll taxes that were aimed at stopping black citizens from voting. The Voting Rights Act helps to outlaw these practices and calls for the federal government to supervise Southern polling places where these practices were used before.
