Answer:
A. Political Elite
Explanation:
The Elite of the South were wealthy plantation owners who had political influence in state governments due to their immense amount of wealth.
The Proclamation applied in the ten states that were still in rebellion in 1863, and thus did not cover the nearly 500,000 slaves in the slave-holding border states (Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland or Delaware) that had not seceded. Those slaves were freed by later separate state and federal actions.
They lived in the north and didn't rely on slaves for they're income.
