Answer:

For new opportunities after the American Civil war

Explanation:

Carpet baggers are described historically as "opportunistic  Northerners who came to the Southern states after the American Civil War, who were perceived to be exploiting the local populace for their own financial, political, and/or social gain." (-Wikipedia definition) This was used by Southern locals as a derogatory term who believed the carpetbaggers to be greedy and exploitative.

Answer:

America entered World War I on account of sympathy.

The election took place during the time of the Mexican Revolution and World War I.

Although officially neutral in the European conflict, public opinion in the United States leaned towards the Allied forces headed by Great Britain and France against the German Empire and Austria-Hungary, due in large measure to the harsh treatment of civilians by the German Army in Belgium and northern France and the militaristic character of the German and Austrian monarchies, but in spite of their sympathy with the Allied forces most American voters wanted to avoid involvement in the war and preferred to continue a policy of neutrality
