Answer:

D. Wilmot Proviso

Explanation:

  • Lincoln was supporting Wilmot Proviso, which was a failed attempt to ban slavery.
  • When Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A. Douglas met in a series of seven debates as they ran for Illinois Senate seat, they heatedly debated a critical issue that day, slavery.
  • Debates raised Lincoln's profile, helping to encourage him to run for president two years later.
  • However, Douglas will actually win the 1858 Senate election.
