Which statement defines suffrage?

Explanation:
Suffrage is the legal right to vote in political elections. It defines who is allowed to participate in choosing public officials and shaping policy. Therefore, the statement that matches suffrage is the right to vote. The other options describe things that restrict or exclude people from voting—denying voting rights, or methods like poll taxes and literacy tests—that historically served to limit suffrage rather than define it.
