If you mean Andrew Johnson’s 1868 Senate impeachment trial: the Senate voted 35 guilty, 19 not guilty. Conviction required a two‑thirds majority (36 of 54), so Johnson was acquitted by one vote.
Party breakdown: most Republicans voted to convict, most Democrats to acquit — but seven Republican senators broke with their party and voted not guilty (Edmund G. Ross, James W. Grimes, Lyman Trumbull, Joseph S. Fowler, William P. Fessenden, John B. Henderson, and Peter G. Van Winkle).
