Answer 1

feared there would not be equal representation in state governments

Step-by-step explanation:

Texas colonists objected to the merger of Texas and Coahuila as a state because they - "feared there would not be equal representation in state governments."

This is evident in the fact that Texans believed they have a smaller population compared to Coahuila and if the two combined to form a state, they would probably be dominated, thereby not having equal representation in that state government. They initially agitated to be a federal territory.
