Answer:

He supported them

Step-by-step explanation:

He was not in favor of the voting rights until after the civil war, he finally opened up to it with his reelection campaign and drafted the 15th amendment he was promptly assasinated at Fords theatre a month later. The moral of the story is, sometimes, people want to stay alive rather than be a martyr
