1. . I would imagine that it was only the men that first enjoyed it due to the fact that there was still slavery, so that eliminates the blacks, and women didn't gain the right to vote until the 19th amendment was passed in 1920.

How was suffrage extended in the first half of the 19th century?
Suffrage has changed extensively since the first United States elections. In 1868, the passing of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution declared that all persons born or naturalized are citizens of the US and of the state where they reside, extending voting rights to these people. In 1870, the 15th Amendment guaranteed voting rights to all male Americans, regardless of their race, color, or previous condition of servitude, granting voting rights to African-American men and any freed slaves. In 1920, the 19th Amendment granted suffrage to women, and in 1971, the 26th Amendment lowered the age of suffrage to 18 years old. Despite these changes to the US Constitution, not all Americans have equal voting rights. The right to enforce and regulate suffrage falls to the states themselves, and some states still have strict policies on the suffrage of individuals or groups.
