Explanation:

Stephen Douglas's popular sovereignty let territories vote on slavery. This led to pro-slavery and anti-slavery groups flooding Kansas and Nebraska, sparking fraudulent elections, violent clashes (Bleeding Kansas), and widespread political unrest. The other options are incorrect: slavery was not abolished in these areas; Sumner's attack was related but not a direct result of the theory itself; no peace agreements emerged from the conflict.

Answer:

corrupted elections, violence, and political chaos
