After the election of 1876, which was one of the most contentious elections in U.S. history, Rutherford B. Hayes was often referred to as "Rutherfraud." This nickname reflected the widespread belief that his victory was the result of a compromised agreement rather than a legitimate electoral win, particularly due to the disputed results in several states and the contentious nature of the election process.

The correct nickname used to describe Rutherford B. Hayes after the election was A. “His Fraudulencey.” This term was used to criticize the legitimacy of his presidency following the disputed election of 1876.

It seems there might be a bit of confusion. The nickname "His Fraudulencey" is indeed a play on Rutherford B. Hayes's name, specifically intended to convey skepticism about the legitimacy of his presidency following the highly contentious 1876 election.

However, if you were referring to the use of "Rutherford" itself, that's simply his first name. In terms of the nickname related to his presidency, "His Fraudulencey" is the commonly recognized one. If you have another context in mind regarding "Rutherford," feel free to share!

Thank you for the clarification! Yes, "Rutherfraud" is another nickname used to describe Rutherford B. Hayes, reflecting the skepticism about the legitimacy of his election. Both "Rutherfraud" and "His Fraudulencey" were used by critics of Hayes to underscore the controversial nature of the 1876 election. So, you are correct that "Rutherfraud" captures the sentiment regarding his presidency as well. I apologize for any confusion!
