Answer:


\boxed {\boxed {\sf True}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Andrew Jackson appealed to the public as a "common man". His presidency was very controversial, but he did manage to expand suffrage to other "common men". Prior to his changes, there were certain requirements, like owning property or paying taxes, that had to be met to earn suffrage.

He changed this so almost all white males over 21 could vote. It did help give suffrage to more people and increase voter participation. However, it still left many groups out, like women, African Americans, and Native Americans.
