Question

no person shall be registered as an elector of this state or be allowed to vote in any election herein, unless he be able to read and write any section of the constitution of the state of oklahoma; but no person who was, on january 1, 1866, or at any time prior thereto, entitled to vote under any form of government, or who at that time resided in some foreign nation, and no lineal descendant of such person, shall be denied the right to register and vote because of his inability to so read and write sections of such constitution. what exception was created to proving literacy in order to vote, according to the oklahoma state law? check all that apply. \currently living in a foreign country\
egistered to vote before january 1, 1866\ \the child of someone registered to vote\
egistered as an elector\ \unable to read and write\

Explanation:

1. Analyze "Registered to vote before January 1, 1866": The law states that those who were entitled to vote (or resided in a foreign nation) before Jan 1, 1866, and their lineal descendants are exempt from literacy requirements. So this is an exception.
2. Analyze "The child of someone registered to vote": The law mentions "no lineal descendant of such person (who was entitled to vote before Jan 1, 1866)" shall be denied, so a child (lineal descendant) of someone registered (entitled) before 1866 is exempt. This is an exception.
3. "Currently living in a foreign country": The law refers to those who resided in a foreign nation "at that time (before Jan 1, 1866)", not current foreign residents. So not an exception.
4. "Registered as an elector": The law is about exceptions to literacy for voting registration, not about being already registered. So not an exception.
5. "Unable to read and write": The exemption is for specific groups (pre - 1866 voters and their descendants), not just anyone unable to read/write. So not an exception.

Answer:

B. "Registered to vote before January 1, 1866"
C. "The child of someone registered to vote"
