Who won this election? What was South Carolina afraid of?
"Results of the 1860 election
presidential candidate political party
Abraham Lincoln Republican 180
John C. Breckinridge Southern Democratic 72"
I posted the election results above.
Ms. Sue actually put up the answer to the question. Maybe if you guys really used your minds and thought like intelligent people then we wouldn't have the problems that we have today.
@blahhh how about you stop because we are here to get help and all you are doing is putting people down by saying "Maybe if you guys really used your minds and thought like intelligent people..." really that's a low blow so stop please because maybe people don't get help at home or other reasons .
