Question

Which of the following was a reason that caused earlier attempts to amend the Articles of the proposed Constitution to fail? A. No one came to the meeting and cast their vote B. The delegates needed an even number of votes to pass anything C. The state legislatures could not accept a system that diminished their authority D. The delegates had to travel too far to vote

Answer 1

C. The state legislatures could not accept a system that diminished their authority

Explanation

The aim of amending the constitution, according to John Paul, was to serve people equally and ensure all Clauses stated in the constitutions were considering every civil right and freedom.

However the process did not push through because the court rules against people wish. It was also wrong because it was enacting the amendments that were not possible. However, the problem would have been solved differently. Steven also wanted to push through with the bill to abolish the death sentence clause.
