Answer:

To decide whether to secede from the United States

Explanation:

The leaders of the South Carolina Ordinance of Secession of 1860 convention meet "to decide whether to secede from the United States."

This is evident in the fact that few days after the election of Abraham Lincoln, the South Carolina legislature called a convention that took place in Charleston, and eventually, on December 20, 1860, the convention agreed without opposition to secede from the United States.

Where in the Oklahoma State Constitution is the initiative outlined?
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Article v

Explanation:

(copied and pasted from a doc i read once)

The <u><em>initiative</em></u> allows voters to write proposals for laws and constitutional amendments. Twenty-four states in the U.S. allow the use of the initiative process, but some restrict the content of the proposals. The processes are outlined in Article V of the state constitution. The very first initiative involved the building and location of the state capitol. Oklahoma City was chosen as the site for the new capital. Another important initiative was passed in 1912 to allow direct election of U.S. senators, rather than having the state legislature choose them. The U.S. Constitution was amended (Amendment 17) to allow direct election of U.S. senators in every state the following year.
