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.

alex41 [277]

Hi! Florida was obtained by Britain by treaty with Spain after victory in war. In 1762, during the Seven Years' War, a British expedition attacked and occupied Havana, the capital of Cuba. To secure the return of this valuable city, Spain agreed to cede its territory of La Florida to the victorious Great Britain under the 1763 Treaty of Paris. I hope this helps you! Good luck and have a great day/night. ❤️✨
