Answer 1

The tactic that best fits the description of a political party using strategies to reconcile American ideals with public policy is:

• Leaders of the National American Woman Suffrage Association lobbied state legislators to pass state amendments to permit women voting rights.

This action directly aimed at aligning the democratic ideal of suffrage with legislative action to achieve voting rights for women, thus representing a concerted effort to change public policy in line with American democratic principles.
