Respuesta :

The only true statement about Abraham Lincoln's early political career would be that "A. He was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1846," since this was to be his first and only term in the House. 

The correct option is A

Abraham Lincoln was an American politician and lawyer who served as the sixteenth president of the United States of America from March 1861 until his assassination in April 1865. Lincoln led the United States during the Civil War, the bloodiest conflict and perhaps also the greater moral, constitutional and political crisis that the American nation has suffered. At the same time, it preserved the Union, abolished slavery, strengthened the federal government and modernized the economy.
