Explanation:

Analyze the Election of 1860

Using the Election of 1860 knowledge point, we examine the political realignment of that era. The election of Abraham Lincoln led to a deep sectional divide. The Republican Party swept the free Northern states, while Southern Democrats dominated the slaveholding South, cementing a highly polarized geographic division.

Evaluate the options for the first question

• Option 1 describes the New Deal Coalition of the 1930s.
• Option 2 correctly identifies the sectional dominance of Republicans in the North and Democrats in the South.
• Option 3 is historically incorrect; Herbert Hoover was elected in 1928 and lost in 1932.
• Option 4 is incomplete because the Republicans did not immediately become a permanent national majority party across all regions.

Analyze Political Action Committee (PAC) limits

We examine federal campaign finance regulations regarding traditional Political Action Committees (PACs). Under Federal Election Commission (FEC) rules, a multicandidate PAC can receive up to $5,000 per year from any individual donor, not $1,000. Therefore, the statement is false.
