What is not the function of political parties?
selecting the candidate
calling for a recount
conducting the campaign
designing the platform

The correct answer is C) calling for a recount.

The option that is not the function of political parties is calling for a recount.

The political party has many activities such as selecting the candidate for the election, design the platform and conducting the political campaign of the candidate. But calling for a recount is not a part of its functions.

It is the candidate that ask for a recount. This is a resource that is asked when the final count is so close between the candidates. One example of the recount was the famous recount in the state of Florida when Al Gore and George Bush were disputing the "sunny state." The United States Supreme Court ordered to stop the recount that had been initiated.

i think it was because of how protected egyptian civilization was was which allowed them to evolve without much outside influence.

it was certainly a debatable decision, mainly because it was based primarily on political - and not on legal or social - views. since the congress at that time was led by members of the republican party, and the territory that the tribes wanted to turn into an exclusively indian state was predominantly democratic, the proposal (as expressed in the constitution) did not succeed, but the constitution itself proved to be of crucial importance in the creation of the state of oklahoma, and, most importantly, it guaranteed the involvement of representatives of the indian tribes in the government of the future joint state.  

as a member of congress, i would have voted to ratify the constitution, or at least to have it tabled. ignoring it was an interested and partial decision.
