Question: 1 / 400

What new powers did the governor gain in the Ohio Constitution of 1851?

Supreme Court appointment

Veto power

The Ohio Constitution of 1851 granted the governor with the power of veto, meaning they could reject or refuse to sign legislation passed by the state legislature. This was a significant change from the previous constitution which did not grant this power to the governor. Option A is incorrect because the governor's appointment power was not affected by the change in the constitution. Option C is incorrect because the governor did not gain the power to directly appoint members of the legislature, rather they gained the power to veto their decisions. Option D is also incorrect because it is the reverse of the correct answer, the governor did gain veto power in the new constitution.
