To what purpose was the new republican party dedicated

1 answer:

4 0

he Republicans rapidly gained supporters in the North, and in 1856 their first presidential candidate, John C. Fremont, won 11 of the 16 Northern states. By 1860, the majority of the Southern slave states were publicly threatening secession if the Republicans won the presidency. In November 1860, Republican Abraham Lincoln was elected president over a divided Democratic Party, and six weeks later South Carolina formally seceded from the Union. Within six more weeks, five other Southern states had followed South Carolina’s lead, and in April 1861 the Civil War began when Confederate shore batteries under General P.G.T. Beauregard opened fire on Fort Sumter in South Carolina’s Charleston Bay.

At what federal level do we have term limits?

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Term limits in the United States apply to many offices at both the federal and state level, and date back to the American Revolution. 

 

Term limits, also referred to as rotation in office, restrict the number of terms of office an officeholder may hold. For example, according to the 22nd Amendment, the President of the United States can serve two four-year terms.

 

Research shows that legislative term limits increase legislative polarization, reduce the legislative skills of politicians, reduce the legislative productivity of politicians weaken legislatures vis-a-vis the executive,and reduce voter turnout. Term limits have not reduced campaign spending reduced the gender gap in political representation, increased the diversity of law-makers,or increased the constituent service activities of law-makers.Term limits have been linked to lower growth in revenues and expenditures.
