a draft is a federal thing. it takes states rights, the south were against a federal government. that's why they had state militias that fought, not a national army. the draft would make a national army.

Northerners and southerners had varied reactions to the new draft laws during the Civil War. In the North, many opposed the draft, leading to protests and riots, particularly the New York City Draft Riots in 1863. Southerners, facing a more desperate situation, largely accepted the draft as a necessary measure to defend their homeland, although there were also instances of resistance and desertion. Overall, responses reflected regional tensions and differing views on the war and personal sacrifice.

Northerners and Southerners had varied responses to the new draft laws during the Civil War. In the North, the draft was met with mixed reactions, leading to protests and riots, notably the New York City draft riots in 1863, where many opposed conscription as unfair, particularly for the poor. In the South, while there was initial support for the draft due to the war's demands, resistance grew as discontent emerged over issues like exemptions for wealthy planters and the strain on local economies, leading to dissent and desertions. Overall, both regions experienced significant unrest as citizens grappled with the implications of conscription.
