<h3>I spent a few years writing about the federal lawsuit of ACLU vs. Yakima, which would become a landmark voting rights lawsuit in Washington state. I remember at the time regular folks, politicians and government officials (all of them white and older) that there was no longer any such thing as voter suppression in the United States of America. That had all been settled in the 1960s, they argued, and the idea that such racist practices existed still today was speculative at best and, besides, impossible to prove. The city lost the lawsuit and was ordered to pay nearly $2 million to the ACLU in addition to a similar number the city wasted litigating the case. The ruling led a few other Central Washington cities with growing (and ignored) Latino populations to preemptively change their council election systems to legally provide for more representation. A couple years later Evergreen State lawmakers approved a state voting rights act to increase representation. Unfortunately, positive developments in Washington state haven’t been seen around much of the country. For nearly a decade, much of the country has gone backwards on voting rights.</h3>

Answer: b. Florida was the first region in the present-day continental United States that Spain colonized.
Explanation:
Florida or Spanish Florida as it was known, was the first territory claimed by a European power in North America.
It was much larger than the present state of Florida and included parts of present day Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina and South Carolina.
Established by Juan Ponce de León for the Spanish crown, Spain found it particularly difficult as well as too unattractive to maintain a significant presence which led to the territory continually shrinking until it's authority in Florida barely extended out of the various ports that were established.
The South could not replenish fast enough. <span>Also, believe England backed the north if I remember correctly.</span>
