Answer:

OA. They wanted all slaves to count toward a state's population.

Explanation:

The issue of slaves being counted as part of the general population was one factor that will help the southern states gain more seats and increase their political influence. But at the same time, including them in the count would mean paying higher taxes.

But as long as their political hold and representation would be more, the Southern states were ready to make that sacrifice. But considering the number of slaves to be included if counted, the Northern states have the lower hand. So, a compromise was drawn, which suggests that three-fifths of the slave population would be counted in all states, be it the South or the North. This compromise was made during the 1787 United States Constitutional Convention, to clear out the issue of direct taxation and also representation in the House.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.

The answer is The increased opposition to war. 

Nixon was not popular with his foreign policy of war to fight communists. During his term, people held numerous strikes that showed that the people were against its implementation. They don't want numerous soldiers to get involved and suffer. They also don't want people from foreign lands to lose their lives because of this.

Ways citizens can influence government officials
Lerok [7]
<em />First of all, they can indeed protest. In the USA, we have the right to do so, and if enough people can protest, the government can notice and make decisions based on the opinion of the people. Secondly, back in history, people used civil disobedience, but if we're talking about the modern world this doesn't apply <em>that much.</em> We can also utilize the media. Millions use it, and a simple tweet or instagram post can spread the word to countless amounts of people, including the government. In fact, the government does actually use social media, giving citizens who want to speak out about their beliefs a better chance to do so. Hope this helps.
