  <dc:title>Resolution, Democratic Party</dc:title>
  <dc:creator>Webb, Thomas H. (Hopkins) , 1801-1866 (Creator)</dc:creator>
  <dc:description>This resolution seems to be responding to the history of accusations of election fraud on the part of the proslavery voters, claiming that the recent Democratic election loss was due to the &quot;importation of Abolitionists, many of who perjured themselves by falsely swearing that they were legal voters&quot;. Also resolved was that Governor Walker&apos;s collaboration with the Abolitionists and free soilers be rebuked, and that men from the Southern states have equal property rights with those of the North. The Democrats also documented their support for the Lecompton Constitution.</dc:description>
