Let's think about this.  What would HURT Lincoln's chances of winning?  If Douglas supported Lincoln, his votes would go to Lincoln, HELPING him. (A is wrong).  If the Constitutional Union supported Lincoln, THEIR votes would go to him and also help (B is wrong).

But at this point, the Democratic party was split over the issue of slavery, leading to the Southern Democratic party.  If the parties were still united, they probably would have been able to overpower the Republicans. C is correct!

Answer: C. the democratic parties staying together rather than splitting.

How does Ashley Gilligan believe that the United States has changed since September 11?
Setler [38]

Answer: Since 9/11 the US has been active in wars but is only technically called “in conflict”. 9/11 was only the second act of war on american soil within the century following pearl harbor in 1941. This was also one of the first acts of terrorism using our own property, the planes. The adults that saw this in person or on the news no longer felt safe as we hadn’t had any breaches of security on our own soil and this was an act to instill fear and to start a war. Security at airports have been extremely raised since then and more background checks on visitors from other countrues
