The correct answer is 1. Race and creed.
The excerpt from the Voting Rights Act of 1965 aimed to eliminate any form of racial discrimination in voting practices. It prohibited the use of any voting qualifications, standards, or procedures that denied or abridged the right to vote on account of race or color. This legislation effectively eradicated the previous practices that had allowed states to block racial and ethnic minorities from exercising their voting rights.
