The correct answer is A) Because all three candidates were Progressive, Progressive votes were split.
The election of 1912 was between Woodrow Wilson, Teddy Roosevelt, and William Howard Taft. All three of these individuals were progressives, even though Wilson technically in the Democratic party and Taft was part of the Republican party. This was a time period in which progressive ideas were extremely popular in all major political parties. Due to this fact, the progressive voters were torn on which candidate to pick. Ultimately, Wilson ends up winning the election of 1912.

It is true that freed slaves would be allowed to choose a vocation or trade that they wished to make, and choose a residence of their choice as long as they remained loyal to the United States.
Freed slaves had no many chances to make a good living, They had to work hard to make a living. And although President Abraham Lincoln had issued the Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, in the third year of the American Civil War, it was only until the end of the armed conflict that it started to transcend in the southern states.
That is why President Lincoln ordered Reconstruction in teh South. However, these southern states did not pay heed to the Proclamation. These states issued the Jim Crow laws and the black codes, a series of legislation that limited the civil rights of African Americans former slaves.
By the time Mehmed became Sultan Mehmed II of the Ottoman Empire (1451), the Byzantine Empire was reduced to Constantinople itself, the Peloponnese, and a handful of Aegean islands. The Ottomans had had control of the territory surrounding Constantinople for decades. Mehmed fortified both sides of the Golden Horn, and would eventually lay siege to Constantinople.
Those fortifications were largely there to block reinforcements from the Black Sea, namely the Genoese in the area. In response, the Byzantines stretched a chain across the Golden Horn to keep the Ottomans from using their naval superiority to assault a section of the walls.
Some Christian reinforcements managed to get past the blockade, and Mehmed decided to make up for his navy’s failures by rolling his ships on greased logs overland, then putting them back in the water behind the chain. This rendered the Byzantines chain useless, spread their troops to defend all of the city’s walls, and made the siege much easier on the Ottomans.
