40. White Primaries
In the 1920s Southern states began using the white primary as a way of limiting the ability of African Americans to play a part in the political process. The white primary was an effective device because of the virtual one-party political system in the South that existed until the late 1960s.
In order to keep African Americans out of the political process, the Democratic party in many states adopted a rule excluding them from party membership.
White primaries allowed
parties to nominate candidates
Only males could vote
It was in the initial election before the general election
