do you know ive never voted in my life, never been able to exercise my right as a citizen because of the poll tax?
how is this concern addressed in the u.s. constitution?
o by making all taxes unconstitutional
o by making barriers to voting unconstitutional
o by limiting voting rights for some americans
o by giving noncitizens the right to vote

Explanation:

The 24th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution (ratified in 1964) prohibited poll - taxes in federal elections. Poll - taxes were a financial barrier that prevented many low - income citizens (especially African - Americans in the South) from voting. By making all taxes (like poll - taxes) related to voting unconstitutional, the Constitution addressed this concern.

Answer:

By making all taxes unconstitutional.
