Neither of the two competing constitutions in Kansas in 1855 agreed on the subject of making slavery legal.

Explanation:

A side effect of Bleeding Kansas was the battle over the constitution that would govern the state of Kansas. Several constitutions were written, including the Topeka Constitution in 1855, which attempted to create a free state government.

A constitutional convention was convened in 1857 which wrote what became known as the "Lecompton Constitution," a document which was for slavery. Abolitionist forces boycotted its ratification because it offered them no means to vote against slavery. The Lecompton Constitution was accepted by President James Buchanan, who encouraged it to be accepted and Kansas to be incorporated as a slave state, but Congress rejected it.

In mid-1859, the Wyandotte Constitution was written. This document represented the views of the victorious abolitionists. It was approved, and Kansas entered the Union as a free state on January 29, 1861.
