Segregated facilities were allowed to exist in states that chose to have them.

Explanation:

Following the decision in Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) segregated facilities were allowed to exist in states that chose to have them. It upheld the "separate but equal" doctrine that would remain in effect for the next half-century. Although the 15th Amendment stated that the right to vote would "not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude," the Plessy case - dealing with segregation of facilities - was not directly related to the issue of voting.
