Which practice is not required by the voting amendments described?

• A. Poll taxes are not required
• B. Taxes must be paid to vote
• C. Poll taxes are required
• D. You must pay a federal tax to vote

Answer: (A)

The key idea here is that voting cannot be conditioned on paying a tax. The amendments in question protect the right to vote by prohibiting requirements like poll taxes. That means you do not have to pay any tax to vote, and poll taxes are not required. The statement expressing that poll taxes are not required matches this protection, making it the correct choice. The other options say you must pay taxes to vote or that poll taxes are required or that a federal tax must be paid to vote, which contradicts the protection against poll taxes and are not required by law.
