Which political party started to rise following The Dred Scott Decision?

A. Republican Party

B. Democratic Party

C. Socialist Party

D. Whig Party

The correct answer is A. Republican Party

The Scot decision surprised the new Republic party led by Lincoln who seemingly had decided that they would not give in to any future plans by the south to expand slavery into the western frontier. the controversial ruling ruled that blacks were not American citizens and as such were not protected by the federal constitution, and thus denied Scott freedom.
