Description: Original Poll Tax Receipt document, very good condition, see photo for details. Unique addition to collection. All Texas voters were required to pay a poll tax, usually $1.50, before they could vote. This was a requirement put in place by the legislature in 1902 to keep minority groups from voting. It was also a barrier for women who had little access to their own money. Women were exempt from paying the poll tax in the July 1918 primary election (the first where they were elibgible to vote), but required to pay the tax thereafter.
