I think the answer to the top one is b and on the second one d
Answer: A) A. He wanted Vice President Arthur, a Stalwart, to take office.
President Garfield was a reformer who was against the Patronage Spoils System (a system that allowed you to get a job in the government even if you were not qualified).
