Question 4 • SSHS IUS002 US History II

Each of the following statements is about voting trends in recent US elections. Which of the statements is FALSE?

Answer
A
Male citizens are more likely to vote than female citizens.
B
White citizens are more likely to vote than citizens of other races.
C
Older citizens are more likely to vote than younger citizens.
D
Wealthy citizens are more likely to vote than poor citizens

Explanation

Female citizens have generally voted at slightly higher rates than male citizens in recent U.S. elections, so statement A reverses the trend. The other statements describe common voting patterns: turnout tends to be higher among white citizens than among some other racial groups, older citizens than younger citizens, and wealthier citizens than poorer citizens. Therefore, “Male citizens are more likely to vote than female citizens” is false.
