Incumbent President Abraham Lincoln won reelection in the 1864 presidential election defeating George McClellan.

The popular vote totals were Lincoln 2,218,388 and McClellan 1,812,807.
1842 was not a U.S. Presidential election year.
According to the prevailing rules of electoral college voting in 1796 and 1800, electors cast votes for two persons. Electors could not distinguish between their presidential and vice-presidential choices. The United States presidential election of 1796 resulted in the election of a President and Vice President from opposing tickets. Responding to the problems from the 1796 and 1800 elections, in 1803 Congress proposed the Twelfth Amendment to the United States Constitution - prescribing electors cast separate ballots for president and vice president - to replace the system outlined in Article II, Section 1, Clause 3 of the United States Constitution. By June 1804, the states had ratified the amendment in time for the 1804 election.
