In 1776, voting rights in America were largely restricted to white male property owners. Each colony had its own voting laws, but generally, women, enslaved individuals, and non-property owners were excluded from the electoral process. Additionally, some colonies had religious restrictions that further limited who could vote. The concept of universal suffrage was not yet recognized at that time.
