regional attitudes toward slavery decided the outcome.

Your answer would be D). Regional attitudes toward slavery decided the outcome.

The statement that accurately describes the results of the presidential election of 1860 is regional attitudes toward slavery decided the outcome.

Presidential election of 1860:

The presidential election of 1860 was a presidential election between Abraham Lincoln and John C. Breckinridge.

Explanation:

The reason why "Regional attitudes toward slavery decided the outcome" is the correct answer is because the election was pretty much based on people's belief in slavery. Slavery was the main factor that made the outcome of the presidential election. Abraham Lincoln did not like slavery, though he didn't want a war to occur just to abolish slavery. Lincoln and the Northern States (The states that were free) believed in abolishing slavery. On the other hand, John C. Breckinridge was for slavery, and believed that slavery was a thing that should be kept in the United States. Him and the Southern states (non-free states) all supported slavery. During the election, it was pretty much people's belief in slavery, and that made the outcome of Lincoln winning. More people supported Lincoln, which made him win the election by more than 50% of votes. To sum all of this information up, slavery was a key issue that made the outcome of the election.

Why the other answer choices are incorrect:

The reason why answer choice "Moderate voters who wanted a compromise on slavery determined the winner" is INCORRECT because:

People that agreed on slavery didn't have the choice to decide who the winner of the presidential election would be. The result of the election all determined on the amount of votes the candidates get.

The reason why answer choice "National unity led to a landslide victory for the Republican candidate" is INCORRECT because:

The National Unity wasn't formed to determine who would be the next president. A national unity is mostly formed because of a war. His party didn't make him win the election, it was all determined by the votes, since Lincoln was part of the National Union Party.

The reason why answer choice "Regional attitudes toward slavery played a small role in the outcome" is INCORRECT because:

Slavery played a HUGE role in the 1860 election. Slavery was not a small issue during their time, it was a BIG issue. The people that were voting for who they thought should be president determined their vote if they believed slavery was right or not. They didn't vote because of other things, they voted on their beliefs on slavery.

athenian democracy developed around the fifth century bc in the greek city-state (known as a polis) of athens, comprising the city of athens and the surrounding territory of attica, and is often described as the first known democracy in the world. other greek cities set up democracies, most following the athenian model, but none are as well documented as athens'.

it was a political system of direct democracy, in which participating citizens voted directly on legislation and executive bills. participation was not open to all residents: to vote one had to be an adult, male citizen, i.e., not a foreign resident, a submissive or a woman, and the number of these was "probably no more than 30 percent of the total adult population."[1]

the longest-lasting democratic leader was pericles. after his death, athenian democracy was twice briefly interrupted by oligarchic revolutions towards the end of the peloponnesian war. it was modified somewhat after it was restored under eucleides; the most detailed accounts of the system are of this fourth-century modification rather than the periclean system. democracy was suppressed by the macedonians in 322 bc. the athenian institutions were later revived, but how close they were to a real democracy is debatable. solon (594 bc), cleisthenes (508/7 bc), and ephialtes (462 bc) contributed to the development of athenian democracy. cleisthenes broke up the power of the nobility by organizing citizens into ten groups based on where they lived rather than on their wealth.

hope this !
