Who makes up the municipal government?

  1. Senators and Representatives

  2. Mayor/Reeve and Councilors/Alderman

  3. Governors and Secretaries

  4. Presidents and Vice-Presidents

The correct answer is: Mayor/Reeve and Councilors/Alderman

Municipal governments are typically found at the city or town level, and the individuals who make up the municipal government are known as the Mayor/Reeve and Councilors/Alderman. While other levels of government, such as state or national, may have individuals in positions such as Senators, Representatives, Governors, Secretaries, Presidents, and Vice-Presidents, these positions are not part of the municipal government. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect. The correct answer, B, refers specifically to the individuals who make up the municipal government.
