Abraham Lincoln felt there were factions within the Whig Party he could no longer agree with. There were both pro and anti-slave Whigs, mainly depending on what part of the country they were from. The New Republican party was comprised of former Whigs who were anti-slavery and wanted a party that just stood for that.
