History

5 0
General Robert E. Lee, the Confederate commander of the Army of Northern Virginia, invaded Union territory in an attempt to persuade the United States into a negotiated peace after a hoped-for decisive and damaging attack on Northern soil. It was also believed that a notable Southern victory in Union territory might have resulted in financial support and recognition of the Confederate cause from England or France. General Lee's first invasion of the North, which took place in Maryland during September of 1862, was repulsed by Union forces at the Battle of Antietam, but it was followed by a second invasion by Lee into Pennsylvania during the months of June and July in 1863.

What was the reaction to the Supreme Court decision in Nixon v. Herndon?
elixir [45]
The answer is D

Nixon v. Herndon was a US Supreme court ruling that unanimously rejected the decision to strike down a 1923 Texas that forbade blacks from voting in the Texas Democratic Party primary. The aftermath led to Texas promptly enacting a new provision to continue restrictions on black voter participation.


The US Supreme court ruling in the court case of Nixon v. Herndon was that there was an obvious infringement of the 14th amendment to the constitution. This in turn violated Dr. Lawrence Nixon. Nixon had stated that both 14th and 15th amendment rights had been violated but only the 14th amendment had been violated according to the Supreme Court.
