It was necessary to have five constitutional amendments to expand voting rights to ensure "every adult citizen could vote for any candidates of their choice regardless of color, gender, and financial capability."

This is evident in the five amendments on voting rights, with each amendment solving an issue relating to voting rights.

The five amendments are the following:

  • Fifteenth amendment: solve the issue relating to race, color, or servitude.

  • The nineteenth amendment: gave women the right to vote.

  • The twenty-third amendment: gave the right to vote for representatives.

  • Twenty-fourth amendment: solve the issue of the poll tax in the election.

  • Twenty-sixth amendment: solve the issue of age restrictions. Voters must be 18 and above.

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that five constitutional amendments to expand voting rights were necessary to avoid disenfranchisement of any adult citizens in voting during an election.
