The strategy the Ku Klux Klan used to dominate local and state politic was:

<u>B. The Klan made at least twelve members from each district run for local office.</u>

The Ku Klux Klan were a group of white supremacists who were offshoots of Americans who were opposed to ending slavery and as a form of rebellion, they:

Attacked blacks in their homes
Physically prevented some blacks from voting
Led crusades against blacks and even went as far as burning crosses in front of their homes
Made sure that their members were in positions of power in government so that they could further oppress blacks

As a result of their desire to gain control and be more powerful, they made sure that their members were elected into political office

Therefore, the correct answer is option B
