Answer:

The answer is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since local governments aren´t on a federal level, the power is decided by the states. The 10th amendment of the Constitution say it best, ¨The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.¨ This basically means what happens in the states is the the states business
