What is one way that Abraham Lincoln influenced the Civil War?

A. He argued against slavery in the supreme court.

Explaining-It would not be B because it saids he was elected  as a candidate who wanted to forbid and Forbid means to allow and refuse, But he was against slavery So B would not be right

Same for the answer C He voted to allow slavery but he was against slavery
The answer would not be D because Abraham Lincoln never had slaves, if he did it, he would want them to be in war 

Correct A

Hopes this Helps! :)
