Question

Athenian democracy wasn’t perfect. For example, Athenian democracy excluded women, slaves, children, and foreigners. These individuals didn’t have citizenship and could not vote. Therefore, they did not have any influence on the government at this time.

American democracy was similar to Athenian democracy for much of US history. Review this information on voting rights, and then answer the following questions:

What percentage of Americans could vote when George Washington first ran for president? Who were they?
When did former slaves get the right to vote?
When did women get the right to vote?
When did 18-year-olds get the right to vote? Why did this happen?
What does this information tell you about democracy in the United States?
