Question

andrew johnson was chosen to be vice president because it was hoped that he
a refused to impeach lincoln
b was from lincolns home state
c opposed the souths \black codes\
d would attract pro-union democrats

Explanation:

Andrew Johnson, a Southern Democrat who remained loyal to the Union during the Civil War, was selected as Lincoln's running mate in 1864. The goal was to create a cross-party "National Union Ticket" that would appeal to pro-Union Democrats, helping to unify voters and secure victory in the election. The other options are incorrect: impeachment of Lincoln never occurred while he was in office; Johnson was from Tennessee, not Lincoln's home state of Illinois; and the Black Codes were implemented after the war, so they were not a factor in his 1864 vice presidential selection.

Answer:

D. would attract pro-Union Democrats
