Lincoln's second term election was in 1864; he had been elected in 1860 the first time. He insisted on Constitutional government, and that required elections, even in a civil war. His margin in many states were soldiers furloughed from active army service back home just to vote. The Democrats nominated General George McClellan, who Lincoln had fired after Antietam for "the slows".
