Topeka Constitutionとは 意味・読み方・使い方

The Topeka Constitutional Convention was held in October 1855 in the town of Topeka, Kansas Territory. This convention was the first effort to establish Kansas under a state constitution; it drafted the Topeka Constitution that was approved by Free-State voters in Kansas on December 15, 1855. This document banned slavery in Kansas. The convention was organized by Free-Staters seeking to subvert the official (proslavery) territorial legislature, which was elected in March 1855 in polling suffering widely from electoral fraud.
