sammy [17]

Answer:

In an armed standoff in the capital between the Republican governor and the Democratic legislature in 1872.

Explanation:

Before the domination ended, the republican representatives in this state always won by republican party in a land slide. But the resentment that people have due to the civil war divided the state's opinion on some issues. This resulted in a standoff between the two parties. Even though eventually the Republican still won the election, the total votes between the two only separated by small margin.

How did the American public receive the two new amendments
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Amendments may be proposed either by the Congress with a two-thirds vote in both the House of Representatives and the Senate or by a convention of states called for by two-thirds of the state legislatures.[1] To become part of the Constitution, an amendment must be ratified by either—as determined by Congress—the legislatures of three-quarters of the states or state ratifying conventions in three-quarters of the states.[2] The vote of each state (to either ratify or reject a proposed amendment) carries equal weight, regardless of a state's population or length of time in the Union. Article V is silent regarding deadlines for the ratification of proposed amendments, but most amendments proposed since 1917 have included a deadline for ratification. Legal scholars generally agree that the amending process of Article V can itself be amended by the procedures laid out in Article V, but there is some disagreement over whether Article V is the exclusive means of amending the Constitution.
