Abraham Lincoln won the Presidential election of November 8, 1864. Lincoln himself thought that through most of 1864 he would not be re-elected. The Summer of 1864 was a disaster for Lincoln and the Federal war effort. The Spring offensives of General Grant brought on huge casualty numbers for the Union, fueling negative civilian support for the War. Another negative factor for Lincoln was a new conscription call for another 500,000 men. In June, there was a movement to possibly nominate John Fremont as the Republican nominee, although Lincoln received the necessary votes for nomination. The press had reported more peace "feelers" from Northerners who met with Confederate President Jeff Davis. Even as late as September, there was a movement to re-convene the Republican Convention and nominate someone else. To add to the Union's appetite for a truce was the August nomination by the Democrat Party of former commander of the Army of the Potomac, George McClellan. He wanted a an end to the war. It should be noted that McClellan had been "replaced" by Lincoln when he commanded the Army of the Potomac. Most historians and newspapers of the day cited the surrender of Atlanta in September of 1864 as the event that catapulted Lincoln to victory.
