Answer: a. border ruffians

Step-by-step explanation:

The Border Ruffians were a group of people from Missouri who crossed the state border into Kansas Territory, to vote in their elections as a means to guarantee the approval of slavery in that State. Their interference in regional elections and their violent attacks on Free-State settlements added to the increasing sectional tensions and promoted the development of the American Civil War.
