rewatch

Explanation:

In the context of the Georgia governor dispute, the Georgia Supreme Court ruled that Thompson was the rightful governor as he was the elected Lieutenant Governor (the legal succession logic, not based on supporter count). The second option's reasoning about supporters is incorrect for a court ruling (which relies on legal/electoral process, not popular support count).

Answer:

A. Thompson was the rightful governor because he was the elected Lt. Governor
