Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Texas used literacy tests and poll taxes to prevent voting by African Americans, Mexican Americans, and poor whites. Additionally, the state implemented white primaries, which only allowed white people to participate in primary elections, effectively excluding minority voters from the political process. The supremacy clause is part of the U.S. Constitution and does not apply to methods of denying voting rights. The minimum voting age of 35 and good character tests were not used in Texas or any other state in the twentieth century.
