How did colonial governors deal with the assemblies?

Answer 1

Colonial governors and assemblies had way too much power in upholding the law. The Colonial governor could order a person's house to be searched without anyone else's consent. The Colonial assembly acted much like a vigilante group, targeting certain people that they thought were spreading Propaganda. This was all before the Bill of Rights was passed.

Answer 2

It depends The colonial governer was appointed by the king however, the colonial assemblies were incharge of paying the governer so the governer wouldn't be mean to them but the assemblies wouldn't be mean to him or else he would not allow their meetings to be held.

Answer 3

The assemblies had gained experience and confidence.

The assemblies believed the colonists had a right to representation under their royal charters.

The governor frequently could not control the assembly.
