Answer 2

The correct answer is A) there were too few African American voters to allow them to become a political force.

A reason that some African Americans in New England in the early 1800s were allowed to vote was that there were too few African American voters to allow them to become a political force.

The British never had any concern about African American people regarding voting. In those years, black people truly were a minority and for any reason, they represented a political strength that could be of any influence. So it is correct to say that a reason that some African Americans in New England in the early 1800s were allowed to vote was that there were too few African American voters to allow them to become a political force.
