Answer 1

Hi there!

1. C) Major executive officials and all judges were to be elected by popular vote.

The Ohio Constitution of 1851 gave its voters the right to elect the governor, other high-ranking state officials, and judges.

2. B) District courts were added to reduce caseload burdens.

The Constitution of 1803 required the Supreme Court to meet once a year in every country in the state, but when this went into effect, few countries existed. Over the next years, the number of countries increased until it was impossible for the Supreme Court to fulfill its obligations under the specified time.

3. A) Debt limitations were instituted and tax funds could only be used for their stated purpose.

In 1851 Ohio Constitution, the legislature had the power to tax, but it had to tax all social classes at the same time and could not implement a lottery or a poll tax.

4. A) Ohio, executive branch.

The branch of government in which Betty needs to support her idea is the Ohio's executive branch, but she also needs the approval of the habitants.

5.  B) Ohio, legislative branch.

In the 1851 Ohio Constitution, the legislature was still the most powerful branch in the government in Ohio. The governor did not have the right to veto legislative acts.

6. Yes, I agree. The governor should have as much power as the legislature. Having the power to veto bills, should be a legislative and executive decision, all equal.

The legislative branch and executive should vote to implement to create new counties and veto bills.
