The 15th, 19th, and 26th amendments all relate to voting rights.

  • The 15th Amendment (ratified in 1870) prohibits the federal and state governments from denying a citizen the right to vote based on "race, color, or previous condition of servitude."
  • The 19th Amendment (ratified in 1920) grants women the right to vote, prohibiting any U.S. citizen from being denied the vote on the basis of sex.
  • The 26th Amendment (ratified in 1971) lowers the voting age to 18 years, ensuring that citizens who are 18 years or older cannot be denied the right to vote based on age.

Thus, the commonality is focused on expanding and protecting voting rights.

Yes, I am sure. The 15th, 19th, and 26th Amendments to the United States Constitution all specifically address voting rights, each focusing on different aspects of who has the right to vote:

  1. 15th Amendment: Focuses on prohibiting the denial of voting rights based on race, color, or previous conditions of servitude.
  2. 19th Amendment: Specifically grants women the right to vote, ensuring voting rights cannot be denied on the basis of sex.
  3. 26th Amendment: Lowers the voting age to 18, ensuring that younger citizens, specifically those who are 18 years and older, cannot be denied the right to vote based on age.

All three amendments are significant milestones in the history of voting rights in the United States. If you have any further questions or need clarification, feel free to ask!
