In
the 1860 presidential race, four
men ran for president – a northern Democrat, a southern Democrat, an
independent, and Lincoln, a republican. Due to the choice of 4 candidates,
Lincoln, carrying the votes of the populous North, won. Southerners became very fearful
that the anti-slavery Republicans
would try to change their way of life.
