How did the 1851 constitution address corruption and financial concerns?

  1. By reducing state debt

  2. By expanding the executive branch

  3. By setting a state debt limit and specifying spending

  4. By electing judges directly by the people

The correct answer is: By setting a state debt limit and specifying spending

The 1851 constitution addressed corruption and financial concerns by setting a state debt limit and specifying spending. This allowed for more transparency and accountability in government spending. Option A, reducing state debt, may have been a possible solution, but it does not directly address the issues of corruption and financial concerns. Option B, expanding the executive branch, would not necessarily have a direct impact on corruption and financial concerns. Option D, electing judges directly by the people, is also not directly related to addressing corruption and financial concerns in the government.
