Before the civil war where could free blacks vote?

Before the Civil War, free blacks could vote in a few Northern states, such as Massachusetts, New York, and Pennsylvania, where laws allowed for limited suffrage for free African American men. However, many states imposed strict requirements, such as property ownership or tax payments, which effectively disenfranchised many free blacks. In the South, free blacks were largely denied the right to vote altogether. The voting rights of free blacks varied significantly across different states and regions.
