Answer:

C

Explanation:

Northern states didn't have slaves. Southern states did and they wanted to count the slaves as part of the population to permit them to have more representatives in congress. However slaves had no say in anything and couldn't vote, so their representation in congress didn't exist. Representation was based on free citizens. Slaves were neither free nor citizens. They were property.  But the southern states wouldn't ratify the constitution if they couldn't keep their slaves. The "compromise" was made that said that slaves were 3/5 of a human and so 3/5 of the slave population was factored into the representation of the southern slave-holding states. So the slavery issue was kicked down the road for 80 years and was resolved by Lincoln and the Civil War.

Where in the constitution is the veto power described
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

In Article II, Section 7.

Explanation:

The veto power refers to the presidential power to disapprove the passing of a bill, order or joint resolution made and voted on by Congress; the US Constitution describes such authority in Article II, Section 7.

Part of the section explains that every bill, order or resolution that the House of Representatives and the Senate make has to be presented to the President before it becomes law. Once the bill is in his or her office, the President can do one of the three following actions: to sign the bill, thereby making it a law, to veto the bill, in such case, the bill has to return to Congress which has the power to override the Presidential veto only if the bill is voted on by two-thirds of each house, or to leave it unsigned and do nothing about the bill, in such case within ten days (Sundays excepted), the bill will immediately become a law.
