Answer:

<em>Lincoln-Douglas debates propelled Lincoln's political career into the national spotlight, while simultaneously stifling Douglas' career, and foreshadowing the 1860 Election. By 1858, Stephen A. Douglas was the most prominent politician in the West, if not the entire country. The Lincoln-Douglas debates were a series of seven debates between Democratic Senator Stephen A. Douglas and Republican challenger Abraham Lincoln during the 1858 Illinois senatorial campaign. The main issue of the debates was the extension of slavery into American territories.</em>

Explanation(Short it up): <em><u>The Lincoln Douglas debates were a series of debates between Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas and they were both running for senate. The debate was mainly about slavery.</u></em>
