Answer:

A) Men

Step-by-step explanation:

Westerners is incorrect, as many western states gave women the right to vote in local and state elections way before the 19th amendment was passed in 1920.

African Americans is incorrect, as many African American citizens fought along side women for the right to vote. These two groups joined forces throughout the middle of the 1800's through the early part of the 1900's to fight for equal rights together.

In this scenario, class status had nothing to do with voting as there was no longer a requirement to make a certain amount of money or own a certain amount of land to vote.

This shows why letter A is the only answer that can be correct.
