Answer 1

D. Georgia's legislature called for a special convention representing all counties to vote on the issue

Step-by-step explanation:

This convention, which was held in January 1861, consisted of elected delegates who represented the people of Georgia. After much debate, the convention voted overwhelmingly in favor of secession, and Georgia became one of the original seven states to leave the Union and form the Confederacy.
