Help please!! Discuss the principles of the Republican Party as expressed by Abraham Lincoln in 1858
ratelena [41]

Answer:

Republicans opposed the extension of slavery

Explanation:

During the political campaign for the Senate in the State of Illinois in 1858, Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglass had a series of debates on important political issues that affected the country in those years. The most important topic; the issue of slavery. Historians consider these debates as one of the most interesting due to the kind of arguments both candidates expressed. The Republican Party that Abraham Lincoln represented, was in favor of abolitionism. In those years, the country was very divided between the southerners that supported slavery because the economy of the south depended on slaves to work in the large plantations to produce crops and the northerners that were against slavery and favored abolitionism. Lincoln opposed slavery into other northern states, and that is what he expressed during the debates.
