A) Mississippi.
The first state to pass a poll tax in the United States was Mississippi. Therefore, the correct answer is A) Mississippi. Poll taxes were used as a discriminatory practice in the Southern United States, particularly during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, to disenfranchise African American voters.
