Lincoln tried to implement what some people have called a "10% solution". In any Confederate territory controlled by Union forces, he said that if 10% of the population took an oath of loyalty to the union then they could elect representatives to Congress. This applied even to just parts of states. I seem to remember that congress originally accepted some of these representatives but then later refused to accept others. I could be wrong about that though. Michael Montagne
That is correct. Two Congressmen-elect from Louisiana were seated in the 37th Congress in February 1863, just as it was about to pass out of existence. However, no other Congressmen were seated from any rebel states until 1866. This was due to the opposition both of Radical Republicans, who thought Lincoln's reconstruction plan too lenient, and of Democrats who were unwilling to seat Linciln supporters, so that both ends comined against the middle.
