Which amendments granted different groups the right to vote? Why were amendments needed to expand voting rights? The 15th amendment made it possible for males of all races to vote. The 19th amendment made it possible for women to vote. The 26th amendment allowed people of 18 years of age or older to vote.
I have answered the first half of the question but need help with the second half. I will give medals! :D
Amendments were needed to expand voting rights because when the constitution was created, it was susceptible to change, the founding fathers meant for amendments to be added to the constitution to make it better. People wanted more voting rights for different races, genders and ages. To top it all off it increased the amount of votes that each state had.
Thank you! :]
