make politicians rapidly lose their jobs when they ignore public opinion.
Under such conditions, would the US have ended slavery or enacted the Civil Rights Act?

Completely depends on who is allowed to vote.
If slaves would have a vote, they’d certainly strongly choose one option :D
Same for the discriminated groups.
If they don’t have a vote, this depends on the rest of society in the short run, but can cause violent rebellions in the long one. Democratic system does not eliminate possibility of revolt.
