Answer:

D. poll tax

Step-by-step explanation:

States still discovered approaches to go around the Constitution and keep blacks from casting a ballot. Survey charges, proficiency tests, misrepresentation and terrorizing all dismissed African Americans from the surveys. Until the Supreme Court struck it down in 1915, numerous states utilized the "granddad condition " to keep relatives of slaves out of races. The condition said you couldn't cast a ballot except if your granddad had casted a ballot - an inconceivability for a great many people whose precursors were slaves.
