Social Studies
1 answer:
Andrej [43]2 years ago
7 0

The census asks questions of people in homes and group living situations, including how many people live or stay in each home, and the sex, age and race of each person. The goal is to count everyone once, only once, and in the right place.

It is mandated by Article I, Section 2 of the Constitution and takes place every 10 years. The data collected by the decennial census determine the number of seats each state has in the U.S. House of Representatives and is also used to distribute hundreds of billions of dollars in federal funds to local communities.

Lincoln's victory in the Election of 1864 was a. supported by Northern soldiers furloughed home to support McClellan at the poll
TEA [102]

Answer:

The correct answer is b: in doubt until the great Union victories in the Battles of Atlanta and Mobile Bay

Explanation:

President Lincoln (1809-1865) was re-elected in the Election of 1864 mostly because of the great <em>Union</em> victories in the Battles of Atlanta and Mobile Bay. These two were significant blows to the <em>Confederacy</em>, and until those victories, Lincoln winning the election had been much in doubt. One of the reasons was that the <em>Civil War</em> was taking longer than expected to come to an end - but the spirit and morale in the North were lifted due to the Union victory in the two battles. This was a crucial aspect that secured the <em>re-election</em> of President Lincoln, who, on <em>November 8</em>, defeated George McClellan (1826-1885), his <em>Democratic competitor</em>, once a Union general.

This 1864 presidential election was only held only for those states which had not separated themselves from the <em>Union</em>.
