Answer: Voters in states with late elections knew the results of early elections.

Explanation:

Before voting day was standardized across the United States in 1845, states, as the question mentions, were allowed to vote any time they pleased within a 34-day period before the first Wednesday in December.

This had the effect of letting voters in states with late elections know the results from the states with early elections.

This was problematic because knowing the results of early voting affected the turnout in states with late voting as they either showed up in more numbers to get a person elected or in less numbers to do the same.

Congress therefore decided to standardize the voting day and this is why election day is one day which is the first Tuesday following the first Monday in November.

Answer:

Hey mate......

Explanation:

This is ur answer......

<em>Most people consider their own mental processes to be what thinking is, without ever considering the nature of the activity and without ever questioning the effectiveness of their particular methods. Modern schooling practices discourage critical thinking by their very nature (e.g. multiple-choice testing) and leave young people without this most crucial of acquired life skills. Much of the mental activity most people indulge in is counterproductive and unworthy of the term ‘thinking’. Thinking is an important mental process. It helps us to define and organise experiences, plan, learn, reflect and create. But sometimes our thinking may for a variety of reasons become unhelpful and this has a negative impact on our well being.</em>

PLZ HELP THE ROUGH DRAFT WAS ON THE POEM "I TOO" I PASTED THE POEM BELOW BEST ANSWER GET BRAINLIEST
Andrews [41]

Answer:

i, Too is a short, free verse poem that focuses on African American identity within the dominant white culture of the USA. It encapsulates the history of oppression of black people by means of slavery, denial of rights and inequality.

Inspired by Walt Whitman's 'I Sing the Body Electric', Hughes must have intended the poem's first line as a contrasting clarion call - the black person is worthy to be an American too, to sing of the country that they help build.

The poem's first person male speaker could be young or old but is sending out the still relevant message of hope for change. By placing the speaker in a house, metaphorically the USA, Hughes brings the issue of black rights into the personal domestic space of the American people.

This connects directly back to Abraham Lincoln, the American civil war and the role of African American slaves in the great houses of plantation owners. Lincoln himself said that: 'A house divided against itself cannot stand.'
