Rights and freedoms included within the Bill of Rights include all of the following except
O A. Freedom of speech
B. Right to a speedy trial
OC. Right to vote beginning at age 18
OD. Freedom from cruel and unusual punishment



Answer :

The correct answer is:

OC. Right to vote beginning at age 18

Explanation:
1. The Bill of Rights in the United States Constitution guarantees fundamental rights and freedoms to its citizens.
2. Freedom of speech, right to a speedy trial, and freedom from cruel and unusual punishment are all included in the Bill of Rights.
3. However, the right to vote beginning at age 18 is not explicitly included in the Bill of Rights but is granted through constitutional amendments like the 26th Amendment, which lowered the voting age to 18 in 1971.
4. So, while the right to vote at age 18 is a significant constitutional right, it is not part of the original Bill of Rights.
