a) ending the direct election of senators
b) decreasing the amount of silver in circulation
c) choosing senators through direct election
d) increasing the amount of gold in circulation
hi guys, i got this question wrong (i marked a) and was wondering what the right answer was, can anyone me out?

The thing that People's party beleived would give the people more political power in the 1800s was: C) choosing senators through direct election

In direct election, people can choose directly the person that represent them, while in indirect election people can only choose for the party and trust the party to elect a candidate for them. Choosing senators through direct election could increase the people's power because people can ensure that the person who represent them actually had similar principles/view like them.

i think it would be c.

hope i'm correct
