Coping with straitened circumstances and grief consumed much of Pankhurst’s attention for the next several years. However, she retained a passion for women’s rights, and in 1903 she decided to create a new women-only group focused solely on voting rights, the Women's Social and Political Union. The WSPU slogan was “Deeds Not Words.” <span>In 1905, Pankhurst’s daughter Christabel and fellow WSPU member Annie Kenney went to a meeting to demand if the Liberal party would support women’s suffrage. After a confrontation with the police, both women were arrested. The attention and interest that followed this arrest encouraged Pankhurst to have the WSPU follow a more combative path than other suffrage groups. </span><span>At first the WSPU “militancy” consisted of buttonholing politicians and holding rallies. Still, following these tactics led to members of Pankhurst’s group being arrested and imprisoned (Pankhurst herself was first sent behind bars in 1908). The</span><span> </span><span>Daily Mail soon dubbed Pankhurst’s group “suffragettes,” as opposed to the “suffragists,” who also wanted women to be able to vote in the United Kingdom, but who followed less confrontational channels.</span>

kolezko [41]

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Which statement explains the most likely reason why the presidential election of 1800 had a different outcome than the presidential election of 1796? A. Voters came from an increased number of states. B. Voters feared the federal government had become too powerful. C. Voters sought a government based on fewer local laws. D. Voters wanted a leader who came from another region of the nation

Answer: B. Voters feared the federal government had become too powerful.

Explanation:

In 1796, the Federalist John Adams had been elected as president through an electoral debate that had already addressed the role and size of the federal government. However, by the 1800 presidential election, the voters had become increasingly fearful of the federal government having too much power over the states. In this election, it was the Democratic-Republican Thomas Jefferson who won the presidency with his promise of an agrarian republic far from Adams´s idea of a strong central government.
