Answer:

Explanation:

The U.S. System of Checks and Balances

EX- is that the president can veto any bill passed by Congress, but a two-thirds vote in Congress can override the veto. Other examples include: The House of Representatives has sole power of impeachment, but the Senate has all power to try any impeachment.

kolezko [41]

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Which statement explains the most likely reason why the presidential election of 1800 had a different outcome than the presidential election of 1796? A. Voters came from an increased number of states. B. Voters feared the federal government had become too powerful. C. Voters sought a government based on fewer local laws. D. Voters wanted a leader who came from another region of the nation

Answer: B. Voters feared the federal government had become too powerful.

Explanation:

In 1796, the Federalist John Adams had been elected as president through an electoral debate that had already addressed the role and size of the federal government. However, by the 1800 presidential election, the voters had become increasingly fearful of the federal government having too much power over the states. In this election, it was the Democratic-Republican Thomas Jefferson who won the presidency with his promise of an agrarian republic far from Adams´s idea of a strong central government.
