Lincoln won the presidency with less than half of the popular vote
Black people weren't aloud to vote because White people thought they were different from white people,white people thought that black people didn't deserve to vote,white people thought that they were better then black people.
Only white males are able to vote because they are the only citizens in the colonies.Because only citizens are able to vote.
The 15th amendment in 1870 gave black men the right to vote first. Women got the right to vote in 1919, a half century later. Even though former female, white abolitionists had organized and fought diligently alongside black male and black female abolitionists, several famous black male abolitionists abandoned the suffragettes in order to achieve their vote first. This caused a falling out between the two groups. Ultimately, black women, white women, and all women including those who had fought for abolition all had to wait a half century before getting the right to vote. Many black and white female abolitionists died before any woman was given the right to vote which was a disappointment to them for the rest of their lives. Similarly, black men held office for the first time right after the Civil War while women of all ethnicities' political opportunities, right to have property, and rights to divorce took decades longer to achieve than that of black men. The 14th and 15th amendments deliberately included language that would keep women of any ethnicity from enhanced rights.
There wasn't any that only prohibited race. The right for blacks to vote came before the right for women to vote.
I don't recall, but there were only about 30 votes against it - roughly half Republicans and half Democrats.
No, black people do not exclusively vote for black people.
There was only a vote for freed black males and it counted for only 1/4 vote.
You could, but that would be regarded as a spoilt vote and so would not be used in the count. In reality you can only vote for the candidates on the ballot paper.
No. In fact, only about half of Americans do.
counts as one !
People say their vote doesn't count because the votes are not direct, you aren't voting for the president but for someone called an electorate from the electoral college to vote for you
It will be counted.
Of coarse.
It is difficult to answer this question, because we only have exit polling data. We know from the exit polls that Mr. Obama got 95% of the black Christian vote; thus, 5% of black Christians did not vote for him and instead voted for Mr. Romney.
