Best Answer

Yes, of course, since he became US President in 1861. Lincoln was popular in the North and generally reviled in the South.

His election to the Presidency in 1860 prompted Southern states to secede. Lincoln was known to be an advocate of abolition, and given more Republican electees in Congress, the South correctly anticipated that slavery might soon be ended. In any event, Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation was one result of the subsequent Civil War.
