Answer 1

The Regulators planned to attend meetings as needed to consult representatives, select better leaders, petition for change, and inform each other to exercise their rights.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the section of the Regulators' advertisement from January 1768, the Regulators' plans included attending meetings as often as necessary to consult their representatives, to choose more suitable leaders, to petition the governor for changes, and to communicate with one another to learn, know, and enjoy their privileges and liberties. This indicates their intention to actively participate in governance by being informed, influencing the political process, and asserting their rights.

Their goal was to seek change through nonviolent means such as petitions and meetings, rather than organizing for armed conflict or refusing to engage with the governor's representatives.
