Question 6 • FL-2100010-M/J United States History A-CR

Which describes a reform of the 1820s that made voting easier?

Answer
A
The number of polling places increased.
B
The secret ballot was established.
C
Public conventions were no longer held.
D
Polling places shortened their hours.

Explanation

Reforms in the 1820s expanded suffrage and made elections more accessible to ordinary voters. Increasing the number of polling places meant people had an easier time reaching a place to cast their vote. A secret ballot was not yet established as a general reform, and shortening polling hours would make voting harder.
