Final answer:

No state constitution in the Revolutionary Era allowed women the right to vote is technically false, as New Jersey's original constitution did allow some women the right to vote until 1807. option b.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is about whether any state constitution in the Revolutionary Era allowed women the right to vote. The answer to this question is false. While the vast majority of state constitutions at the time did not allow women to vote, New Jersey's constitution of 1776 granted voting rights to all inhabitants who met certain property and residency requirements, which included unmarried women and widows. It wasn't until 1807 that New Jersey restricted the vote to free white male citizens. Therefore, it is technically incorrect to say that no state constitution allowed women the right to vote during the Revolutionary Era.
