In 1792, voting rights in the United States were largely restricted to white male property owners. Many states required voters to own a certain amount of land or property, effectively disenfranchising poor men regardless of their race. While some states allowed a broader interpretation of eligibility, the general trend favored property ownership as a prerequisite for voting. Thus, poor men typically could not vote in most states during that time.
