The correct answer here is the first option.

The Know-Nothing Party was a powerful and popular political party of 1850's which in its essence was an anti-immigration and anti-Catholic political party. They were formed as a response to a large number of Germans and Irish that immigrated during that time. So their goal was the restriction of immigrant voting rights.
