Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The elimination of property requirements for voting in the US was encouraged by the rise of cities, where many people rented rather than owning land. Immigrants fueled the growth of these cities. In addition, political parties became increasingly interested in recruiting immigrants to bolster their numbers. The Democratic Party, for example, actively courted Irish voters.
