During Reconstruction, Lincoln's suggested standards (owning property, literacy, or Union military service) were related to the right to vote for African Americans. These were attempts to establish reasonable criteria for formerly enslaved people (African Americans) to gain voting rights, while Southern whites generally had fewer restrictions, immigrants' voting wasn't the focus here, and Northern women's voting was not addressed with these standards.
