When the colonies were first established white men who owned land were allowed to vote. In some colonies they also had to be a member of the primary religion of that colony. It wasn't until 1920 with the passage of the 19th amendment that women were allowed to vote and not until the 1965 voting rights act that black citizens were given their full and equal rights of voting. Former slaves were given citizenship rights after the civil war, but kept from voting by various means for nearly 100 years. So, white men have always had the right to vote in the United States.
