Unanimously Win the 1788 election by Answering Questions

It is the Presidential Debate, you and your opponent have to answer certain questions about states. But this debate is different, whoever wins the debate, wins the election. Answer these questions to gain electoral votes and WIN, and if you can, try to do it the same way George Washington did: unanimously
Only Questions a person living before 1788 would know are in the quiz.
North Carolina, New York, and Rhode Island hadn't ratified the constitution at this point, so they are ineligible
Quiz Idea: HinesBrothers
Maine, which was part of massachusetts is colored in because I cant merge the paths

Technically, you would only need 35 to win, but try your best to do it unanimously and get all 69.

First delete all the paths except Maine and Massachusetts. Then do ctrl k. Then copy. Do ctrl z until the map looks the same. Then delete Mass. and Maine. Replace it with the copied path.

More simply, click on Massachusetts, hold shift, then click on Maine. When you have both states selected, just do Ctrl+K to merge. No deleting required.

I saw your reply on my quiz. It won't take too long to make the 1,000 Largest Cities quiz. Since I have my 100k+ cities quiz, I can copy the 1,000 largest cities on the sheet (with coordinates!), paste them onto a new spreadsheet, and send it to you for you to use :)

Can you accept "African Americans" and "slaves" for the South Carolina one? There was a large population of black people who escaped slavery and joined the British Army and many of them played a major role in South Carolina.
