The correct answer is B) taxation; representation in Congress.

The Three-Fifths Compromise counted each slave as three-fifths of a person for the purposes of both taxation and representation in Congress.

It all happened during the Constitutional Convention of 1787, celebrated in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In that event, the Delegates agreed on counting slaves in the United States as three-fifths of an individual for representation in Congress and taxation purposes. This decision helped the Southern States to have more representation due to the number of slaves they used in their plantations.

What did Abraham Lincoln support as he was a Republican. What scandal's did Abraham Lincoln have? What made Abraham Lincoln a Re
REY [17]

Abraham Lincoln was a Republican until he pointed it out. US president’s improbable claim made during roundtable discussion on Venezuela.

But for Lincoln’s death, there might have been some postwar investigations of the profiteers who supplied the Union Army with lousy war materiel. Soldiers in the field complained about leaky boots, spoiled meat, and biscuits that, when unpacked.

Lincoln abhorred slavery, a position that led him to the Republican Party. Once a Republican, his broader philosophy made its mark on the party. Lincoln was attracted to the party by his unwavering faith in the ideas espoused in the Declaration of Independence, even when faced with civil war. Lincoln was a moderate in a radical party.
