presidential election of 1868  

Definición

  • THE 1868 ELECTION, the first post-War election for the presidency, reflected the lingering battles between a Radical Republican Congress and a Democratic president. Conducted in the wake of the passage of Reconstruction measures and the impeachment of President Johnson, the election centered on a Democratic Party whose southern base was still petitioning to return to the Union, and a Republican Party attempting to solidify its electoral majority in the postbellum United States.
