Answer 1

A. There's less money to pay salaries for elected officials.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the question is talking about local government, we can cross out D as an answer. Since hardship would also be defined as severe suffering or privation, our answer would be A since less salaries would mean less money going to those officials and that would result in scarcity of resources for their families.
