The answer is ā€œDā€ because having a franchise is owning property/ business so disenfranchisement would mean that you no longer own that property/ business

Answer:

C) to lose the right to vote

Step-by-step explanation:

Disfranchisement is the revocation of suffrage (the right to vote) of a person or group of people, or a practice that has the effect of preventing a person from exercising the right to vote.
