1. What effects did the Voting Rights Act have?
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

It outlawed the discriminatory voting practices adopted in many southern states after the Civil War, including literacy tests as a prerequisite to voting. This “act to enforce the fifteenth amendment to the Constitution” was signed into law 95 years after the amendment was ratified.

It helped reduce voter discrimination at polling sites. It contributed to increased involvement of lobbyists in political campaigns. The Voting Rights Act itself has been called the single most effective piece of civil rights legislation ever passed by Congress.
