Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Ideal Answer: The ideal answer should:
1. Explain that office holding paid a modest salary, motivating white and black politicians to campaign vigorously for elected office.
2. Outline that the South was in transition and political offices were in flux as whites and blacks redefined a new political system.
3. Note that the nation's political system was based on the spoils system of political patronage and rewards of public appointments and office for party loyalty.
