white males who owned property and paid taxes

Females were not allowed to vote until 1920. This eliminates option 1. Political party affiliation was never a requirement for voting in the presidential election. It is necessary for the primaries, but that is not what this question is asking. Eventually all white male citizens over the age of 21 were allowed to vote, but not before 1820. In 1971 the voting age change to 18 primarily due to protests during the Vietnam War. When the voting requirements were determined by the states, each state could determine who had the right to vote. Many states required voters to own property and/or pay taxes. In 1856, North Carolina was the last state to remove property ownership as a requirement for voters.
