Answer 2

stopped people from holding elections

Step-by-step explanation:

The laws in the Acts of 1774, known as The Intolerable Acts, were meant to punish the Massachusetts colonists defying the British in the Tea Party protest. The protests were a response to the changes in taxation. The acts took away self-governance and historic rights of Massachusetts, which caused a mass revolt in the colonies and eventually led to a war.
