The correct answer is **B. No, a segregationist was reelected to office.**
While the end of the white primary system did allow for some participation by African Americans in the electoral process, the political landscape in Georgia in the 1946 gubernatorial election still reflected significant challenges, including the election of a segregationist. This indicated that, despite changes, African Americans did not yet have a sufficient or effective voice in politics at that time.
