How did florida, georgia, alabama, mississippi, and louisiana react to south carolina’s secession? 1.they condemned the state’s decision.
2.they also voted to secede in 1861.
3.they voted to remain in the union.
4.they expressed no official opinion.

The correct answer is 2) They also voted to secede in 1861.

South Carolina became the first state to secede at the end of 1860. South Carolina was fearful of the newly elected president, Abraham Lincoln. Other southern states were worried about Lincoln as well, mainly because these states were fearful that the would try to get rid of the institution of slavery in southern states if he became president. Getting rid of slavery would completely change the southern economy, resulting in the loss of significant profits for individuals who owned plantations.
