Historically, poll tax had been levied in order for people to cast votes in federal elections, a mandate Congress strived to eliminate in 1939 to remove the last bit of voter-related property taxation that still remained from colonial times. Eleven southern states incorporated the poll tax into its voting prerequisites after the Reconstruction; just five states held onto this Amendment at ratification. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
