They were upset because he was against slavery which was the south's mean of economy. They relayed on slavery to work on the plantation.
When Lincoln won the election of 1860 he won without a single electoral vote and very few popular votes in the slave states. The Southerners knew they had lost control of the government. A northern antislavery party would dominate the future and slavery was doomed if the South remained in the Union. So, 7 slave states seceded and were followed by 4 more after Ft. Sumter.
One reason the election of 1876 was important was that it was decided in the House of Representatives. Also, Rutherford Hayes effectively ended Reconstruction in the South almost immediately.
As I write this, the 2012 election has concluded, so the next election for president will be in 2016.
He won because the Democratic Party had split into two factions (North and South), so the Republican party, which opposed the extension of slavery, was bound to win. The South reacted in protest, with South Carolina immediately seceding from the USA, and six other states shortly following. After the Confederate attack on Fort Sumter, four more states joined them, and the war was on.
The colonists were upset that their taxes were going to Britain instead of their own economy. They also felt that they had no voice.
Lincoln asked them to return, but they refused. So he waited. It wasn't until the south attacked Fort Sumpter that Lincoln declared war.

he was planning to end slavery so pro-slavery states started seceding from the union.
A communist would likely win- was the answer for me on apex

armies where withdrawn from Louisiana and South Carolina so the republican Hayes could win the election
Because Lincoln's election as President meant there would be no new slave-states. So the South would always be outvoted in Congress, which would tend to pass laws that favoured the North over the South.Because Lincoln had won the election of 1860 on a ticket of no new slave-states. So the South was doomed to be outvoted in Congress.
