B. He declared that Samuel Norris was a better choice.

Explanation:

Jose Antonio Saucedo was the political chief of the Department of Béxar, San Antonio. He was also famous for refusing to accept the election result of elections for a new alcalde., where he chose to openly accept the defeated candidate as the winner.

Haden Edwards was a greedy and prejudiced man who wanted to capture and control lands. So, he began to organize a political power stronghold over the settlement in Nacogdoches. In 1825, in order to capture the power, he decided to call for an election for the new alcade/ mayor where his son-in-law, Chichester Chaplin was pitted against Samuel Norris. Even though Chaplin won, most of the people suspected vote-stacking, leading the political chief to be involved. It was then that Saucedo overturned the ruling by declaring Samuel Norris as the better choice.
