Answer 4

Similarities between U.S. Constitution and state constitutions:
Every state's constitution sets up a government that is, in some way or other, patterned after the United States government.

Every state has a separately elected Governor, as opposed to a Westminster style parliamentary system of government where the chief executive would be elected by the legislature (parliament).

In every state, the head of state and the head of government are the same person. No state has a monarch, or titles of nobility.

Every state has a separate executive, legislative, and judicial branch, like the federal government.

Every state constitution has a bill of rights. In most cases, the same rights that are found in the federal bill of rights can also be found in state constitutions' bills of rights. In many cases, state constitutions give more rights than the federal constitution.

Every state except Nebraska has a bicameral (two house) legislature, like Congress.

Every state has a written constitution (like the federal government does).

The list goes on, but the above should get you started brainstorming similarities between state constitutions and the federal constitution.
