The 15th amendment to the United States Constitution was ratified in 1870. This amendment provides for any man, of any race, who is a citizen of the United States the right to cast a vote in an election. It wasn't until the 19th amendment, ratified in 1920, that women were provided the same right.
No matter when, or which, amendment gave you the legal right to vote, please exercise that right today.
Our Constitution provides you the opportunity to vote. So just do it.
