Answer to Question 1

An ideal response would be:
The line item veto permits state governors to veto individual items in an appropriations bill while signing the remainder of the bill into law. Thus, they can influence the flow of funds to the executive departments and thereby attempt to control their activities.

Answer to Question 2

An ideal response would be:
Lobbyists have two sources of influence: information and campaign resources. Information is usually the key ingredient in gaining or losing a vote. Effective lobbyists typically explain how the sometimes complicated laws or proposals are likely to affect the businesses, institutions, and individuals in a legislator's own district.
