Why did president Hayes serve only one term?

Asked by Wiki User

Most Presidents did at that time. From 1837 to 1901, only two, Lincoln and Grant, managed to succeed themselves. Cleveland also got two terms, but not consecutively. Hayes was never a likely candidate for a second term, due to the controversy surrounding his first election, which was widely regarded as fraudulent.

In the American presidential election of 1877, Rutherford B. Hayes struck a deal with Southern Democrats that enabled him to achieve the presidency. In return for their electoral votes (which would give him the needed majority), Hayes agreed to remove Federal occupation-troops from South Carolina, Florida, and Louisiana -- and thereby practically put an end to Reconstruction in those states.

Was Rutherford B. Hayes a good president?

Asked by Wiki User

Yo he totally wasn't, man. They called him Rutherfraudbecause during his election a Republican-biased commission gave him the twenty electoral votes he needed even though his competitor Samuel Tilden only needed one of those votes to win. Many Americans considered his election a scam and his power over the people was diminished by that. One of the only good things he did was retire the greenbacks, which isn't even that cool.

Sorry, Rutherford. You win some, you lose... well, you scam the rest.
