Exactly why the Founding Fathers said that only property owners could vote. Too many voters nowadays are Gimmedats who have no skin in the game. Under that law, I myself would not have been a voter because I owned no real property for a number of years. But I can’t think of one bit of harm that would have befallen the Country if I had been temporarily prevented from voting.

Finish it up, it also included male, white.

My mother always contended that giving women the right to vote was the stupidest thing they ever did!
