Stephen Douglas introduces a bill to organize the territory west of Missouri and Iowa. The Slave Issue Reborn! WHY?

 Why would N.Democrats vote for a bill that nullified the Missouri Compromise and replace it with a policy of popular sovereignty?  Didn’t think slavery would exist in the area  Money/profit involved with the railroad  Political expertise and pressure of Douglas/Pierce The Vote on the Kansas Nebraska Act

  Abolitionists, Free-Soilers, N.Whigs, and even Northern Democrats could not stop the passage of the act. The Vote on the Kansas Nebraska Act Kansas-Nebraska Act Senate All Southerners support 15 of 20 N. Dems support House of Reps. With backing and pressure from Pierce and Douglas, where half N.Dems voted for it.
