Although the Supreme Court ruled as long ago as 1880 that Blacks could not be excluded outright from jury service, nearly a century of case-by-case adjudication has been necessary to develop and enforce the principle that all juries must be drawn from “a fair cross section of the community.â€

I'll go with B. I don't see a grammatical error in it, despite the fact that it does sound awkward.
I think the inapproriate use of present perfect in A is the bigger problem here. "Nearly a century" after 1880 implies that the process has already concluded, so we should use past simple.
All in all, this a lousy question and a really close call. Any of the two answers could be correct, depending on what assumptions you make and how you support them...

I'd also go with A.
In addition to what Vasil said, B sounds bad and may be ambigious.
The principle of all juries Are we inforcing the principle of all juries? It sounds as if the juries have a principle and we are trying to enforce it.
