Secondary-source excerpt (1800–1848 South): "In many Southern counties, the courthouse square anchored civic life. Elections, land sales, and legal disputes occurred under the watchful eyes of leading families who often served as judges, sheriffs, and legislators. Their authority rested on networks of kinship and indebtedness, and on the assumption that enslaved people had no legitimate claim to rights. Political participation expanded for white men, but it did not challenge the slaveholding elite's dominance." Which statement best reflects the excerpt?
