In what year did all men get the right to vote?

1870, with the 15th Amendment.

  1. 1870 ✔
  2. 1776
  3. 1920

Why: The 15th Amendment, ratified in 1870 after the Civil War, protected the right of men of every race to vote. 1776 is the Declaration, and 1920 is when women got the vote.

Huh, didn't know that: The 15th Amendment says the vote cannot be denied because of race, color or previous condition of servitude.
