What change came in the 1792 elections compared to 1791?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Male suffrage became broader
Under the Constitution of 1791, voting was limited to active citizens—men who met a tax or property qualification. After the monarchy was abolished in 1792, all men aged 21 years and above were granted voting rights without a property or tax condition. Therefore, male suffrage became broader. Women still did not receive the right to vote. Exam tip: Remember 1791 for limited, property-based voting and 1792 for broader male suffrage.
