Which amendment to the United States Constitution grants the right to vote to all citizens regardless of race?

13th Amendment.
14th Amendment.
15th Amendment.
19th Amendment.

The correct answer is: 15th Amendment.

The 15th Amendment to the United States Constitution granted the right to vote to all citizens regardless of race. This amendment specifically states that the right to vote cannot be denied based on race, color, or previous condition of servitude. The 13th Amendment abolished slavery, the 14th Amendment granted equal protection under the law to all citizens, and the 19th Amendment granted women the right to vote. While each of these amendments played a significant role in ensuring equal rights for all citizens, none specifically addressed the right to vote regardless of race except for the 15th Amendment. Therefore, C is the correct answer.
