 * //1835 constitution //**

//**The constitutional revisions of 1835 resulted in great part from North Carolina’s acceptance of Jacksonian democracy, a poltical movement that emphasized participation of the common man in the political process. The democratic movement gained momentum after Andrew Jackson (1767-1845) was elected to the presidency in 1828. There had been years of protest against the Constitution of 1776 with its disproportionate representation of eastern counties, extensive property requirements for voting and office holding, and for its omission of an amendment and an impeachment process. **//
