Should this one be on Citizen's test? You need to know that to be a citizen? Really the citizenship test should be on the Constitution and basic history.

"Really the citizenship test should be on the Constitution and basic history."
So I guess you failed? When you make up a citizen test it can have anything you wish on the test, when I make up a citizen test it can have anything I want on the test, even if, In Your opinion, it should have what you want.

What is the capital of Texas? haha! To everyone reading this post, here are some questions that are State specific: (From the official citizenship quiz questions)
* Question #20: Who is one of your state's U.S. Senators?
* Question #24: What is the name of your U.S. Representative
* Question #43: Who is the Governor of your state?
* Question #44: What is the capital of your state?

Want to know the answers for them all? Head over to Citizenship Coach's website. I (and my students) love this website, it has all the information you need to learn for your citizenship test (questions, audio, video test, cd, mp3, vocabulary, state specific questions/answers. They really do a good job.
