IMO C
The new state constitutions were objective to adherents of the old order more because of their origins but because of their contents, excepting their provisions for Negro suffrage and civil rights.
Meaning: The old order has objections regarding the New state constitutions more because of the origins than because of the contents.
Options A and B miss the Parallel marker than ----More x than Y. So Strike out A and B.
A. The new state constitutions were objective to adherents of the old order more because of their origins but
B. The new state constitutions were objects to adherents of the old order more because of their origins but
C. The new state constitutions were objectionable to adherents of the old order more because of their origins than
>> Correct Choice. It clearly states the Intended meaning.
D. The new state constitutions objected to adherents of the old order less because of their origins than
>> Here the performer of the action Objected is New state Constitutions, which does not makes sense. In addition it also changes the intended meaning by stating that the Contents of the constitutions are the major reason for the objection.
E. The new state constitutions were objectified to adherents of the old order more because of their origins than
>> The verb 'objectified' has a different meaning. In the context of this sentence, the verb should imply "raising an objection" or "not acceptable". This choice cannot be the answer since it changes the intended meaning.

Ans C
Analysis:
The idiom in contention is More X than Y
A. The new state constitutions were objective to adherents of the old order more because of their origins but - Incorrect
More X But Y is unidiomatic structure
B. The new state constitutions were objects to adherents of the old order more because of their origins but - Incorrect
More X But Y is unidiomatic structure
C. The new state constitutions were objectionable to adherents of the old order more because of their origins than - Correct
This option corrects the idiom errors and conveys the intended meaning.
D. The new state constitutions objected to adherents of the old order less because of their origins than - Incorrect
The 'their' before the origins incorrectly refers to the constitutions rather than the old order
E. The new state constitutions were objectified to adherents of the old order more because of their origins than - Incorrect
The 'their' before the origins incorrectly refers to the constitutions rather than the old order and also the word 'objectified' changes the meaning of the sentence
