The correct answer is A) he would have opposed it.

A congressman from Georgia most likely have voted regarding the Wilmot Proviso in that he would have opposed it.

After the United States won the Mexican-American War (1846-1848), it gained large territories. The Wilmot Proviso tried to eliminate the use of salves in those recently acquired lands. It was David Wilmot, a Congressman from the state of Pennsylvania, who made the proposal.

The other options of the question were A) he would have supported it. C) he would have abstained from voting for fear of causing controversy. D) if he were from Atlanta he would have supported it, but if he were from a rural ara, he would have opposed it.

David Wilmot proposed the Wilmot Proviso in 1846 which would ban slavery in the new lands. However, this was shot down to much debate. Increasingly, the northerners became more polarized against slavery. Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.

I have no idea what book or story you are talking about, but based on my knowledge of Law... asking a person the same question over and over and cause a reaction in their fight or flight extinct, the person will start to become worried and they'll either start changing their answer or they'll break down completely. I'm guessing the when Hathorne asked the same question several times to Sarah, she started to get nervous.

I hope this kinda helped
