Answer 1

The correct answer is:

It led to the withdrawal of many members in the South.

The Democratic Party's support of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 alienated many white Southern Democrats who were opposed to desegregation and civil rights for African Americans, leading to a significant shift in the party's membership in the South. This shift contributed to the realignment of political parties in the United States during that period.
