Religious freedom: they no longer had to follow one strict religion
Political: they had a democratic government where the power originates from the people
Civil: people could vote for who will be president
1. C
2. A
3. B
4. D
Incumbent is someone who currently holds office ( 3 is B) And so 4 will be D. Because they are 'losing' in #2 the answer is A (defeat). And when Congress can pass legislation they must have the majority (1 is C).
