Answer 2

New Southwestern territories entering the union as slave states was not a result of the compromise of 1850.

• The Compromise of 1850 reduced the dispute over the issue of slave and free states in the territories.
• It admitted California as a free state and left New Mexico and Utah to decide itself.
• The Fugitive Slave Act allowed slave owners to reclaim runaway slaves in free states.

Therefore we can conclude that the incorrect option is the new Southwestern territories entering the union as slave states.

Thus option B is the correct answer.
