The middle colonies were made up of Delaware, New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. People that lived in Pennsylvania were allowed to vote.
In the middle colonies, the right to vote was typically limited to free white men who owned property. This excluded women, Native Americans, African Americans, and those without property from voting in elections.
Yes, the Middle Colonies did have slaves, but slavery was not as prevalent as in the Southern Colonies. Some of the Middle Colonies, like New York and Pennsylvania, began to abolish slavery earlier than other regions in the country.
Slaves in the middle colonies were subjected to harsh living and working conditions, often enduring long hours of labor, physical abuse, and limited freedoms. They were considered property rather than individuals, with minimal rights and protections. Despite some colonies having laws regulating the treatment of slaves, the reality was often brutal and oppressive.
African slaves in southern colonies were subjected to harsh treatment, including forced labor, physical abuse, and dehumanization. They were often separated from their families, faced brutal working conditions on plantations, and had limited rights and freedoms. Slaves were considered property and were treated as such by their owners.
The Reform Bill of 1832 aimed to reform parliamentary representation by increasing the number of people eligible to vote, while the Chartist Movement sought universal suffrage, annual parliamentary elections, and other political reforms. The Reform Bill focused on increasing the political participation of the middle class, while the Chartist Movement aimed for broader working-class enfranchisement.
In the American colonies during the 17th and 18th centuries, English and African indentured servants could be found working together on plantations, particularly in the Southern colonies like Virginia and Maryland. They were both bound to work for a set period of time in exchange for passage to the colonies or other benefits.

only white men
Only white men who owned land could vote
Men have always had the right to vote. In the early colonies the requirements were that they own land in the colony, but after the Constitution was signed this was dropped and men (expect black men) could vote.
The colonies met the needs for government by going to town meetings to vote but only men could vote.
Lumber, textiles, and shipbuilding were important industries for the Middle Colonies,.

Settles were drawn to the middle colonies because there they could vote for who then wanted to rule. They were able to move away from the control of England. They also had good land for growing crops in the middle colonies.
