      However, most historians have

underestimated the extent and signifi-

cance of women’s political allegiance

in the antebellum period.  For example,

            in the presidential election campaigns

(25)     of the 1840’s, the Virginia Whig party

strove to win the allegiance of Virginia’s

women by inviting them to rallies and

speeches.  According to Whig propa-

ganda, women who turned out at the

(30)     party’s rallies gathered information

that enabled them to mold party-loyal

families, reminded men of moral values

            that transcended party loyalty, and con-

ferred moral standing on the party.

(35)     Virginia Democrats, in response,

            began to make similar appeals to

women as well.  By the mid-1850’s

the inclusion of women in the rituals of

party politics had become common-

(40)     place, and the ideology that justified

such inclusion had been assimilated

by the Democrats.

Q5:

According to the second paragraph of the passage (lines 20-42), Whig propaganda included the assertion that

women should enjoy more political rights than they did

women  were the most important influences on political attitudes within a family

women’s reform activities reminded men of important moral values

women’s demonstrations at rallies would influence men’s voting behavior

women’s presence at rallies would enhance the moral standing of the party
