Answer 1

During Ellis Arnall's time as governor of Georgia, the following two reforms were introduced to the state's voting system:

1. The poll tax was abolished - This reform was significant in removing a financial barrier that prevented many citizens from voting.

2. The state constitution was revised to allow independents to vote - This reform expanded the electoral process to include independent voters, enhancing political participation.

The other options, such as lowering the voting age to 17 or expanding voting locations, were not part of the reforms during his governorship.
