Question

14
a person running to serve as a representative in the state house of representatives would be elected by
a. all interested people in the united states.
b. the people living in his or her district.
c. all of the people living in the state.
d. other members of the house of representatives.

Explanation:

In the US, state House of Representatives members are elected by the voters within their specific legislative district. Option A is incorrect as not all US people (especially those outside the district) vote for a district's representative. Option C is wrong because state - wide election is for state - wide offices like governor, not district - based representatives. Option D is incorrect as representatives are elected by the public, not by fellow representatives. So the correct option is B.

Answer:

B. the people living in his or her district.
