Answer:

The correct answer is D) National Governors Association (NGA)

Step-by-step explanation:

The Watergate scandal came as a complete shock to the political system of the United States.

It began when a group of burglars were caught in the head office of the Democratic party. These burglars were there to steal sensitive information related to the Democratic Party.

Further investigation found that the burglars were working on Richard Nixon's reelection campaign and wanted to spy on their opponents.

President Nixon tried to cover up the whole thing but newspaper reporters, congressional investigators and federal prosecutors all got involved. Eventually resulting in Nixon resigning from his office.

The NGA has no involvement in the Watergate scandal.
