The correct answer is the following.

In local elections, people vote for authorities in counties, municipalities or towns. For instance when they elect authorities such as the Sheriff, the Major, or city council members. The candidate with more votes wins the election.

The state election select the positions in the state government. People in a state election vote for the governor and the members of the legislature. In some states, people also vote for their judges.

And in the national election, people vote to elect the President of the United States. The President and Vice President run together in the election that is decided by the number of votes in the electoral college.

Answer:

Explanation:

''Most of the state and local level public officials in the U.S. are elected directly or indirectly. An election is the process by which people choose their representatives for governance. In the U.S., each state controls and regulates state and local elections. State law and state constitutions regulate elections at the state and local level. The state legislature controls state laws and state constitutions. Every state is free to conduct its elections and limit its electorate. State legislatures and the executive are elected separately. In all states, the governor and lieutenant governor are elected. Additionally, all members of the state legislatures are elected. The legislative branches in local level, county, and city government are filled by election. Sheriffs and Mayors at the local level are also elected''

What will be the consequences of Jackson’s “getting his way” in politics for the nation and the role of future presidents?

Evgesh-ka [11]

At that time, the most controversial decision made by Andrew Jackson would most likely be his efforts to move the Native Americans from their land.

He was a prominent supporter of making legislation that enable American military to take the native american land by force.

If, other representatives at that time let Jackson getting his way in politics, Future presidents would most likely had to deal with the after effects of ethnic cleansing initiated by Jackson, and the racial tension in united states might be even worse that it is today.

How does the judicial branch relate to foreign policy?

DiKsa [7]

In one short, succinct statement Justice George Sutherland altered the relationship between Congress and the executive branch. “The President [operates] as the sole organ of the federal government in the field of international relations,” he wrote in the United States Supreme Court’s decision of U.S. v. Curtiss-Wright Export Corporation<span>. Whereas the Constitution lays out distinct, delegated powers to Congress, such as the power to declare war and the power to ratify treaties, and to the executive, primarily the role of the president as Commander-in-Chief, Justice Sutherland’s statement altered the relationship between the two aforementioned branches. Suddenly, the executive branch had a legal precedent with which to become the leading force in foreign policy and upon which it could fall back on if actions are legally challenged.</span>
