The 1876 Presidential election. In short, the election results were heavily contested and there was no clear winner. A "non-partisan" committee handed victory to Hayes (R) over Tilden (D) in a vote completely along party lines, which the Democrats contested. In order to silence all the criticism and threats of revolts the parties came to an agreement, the contested states would be awarded to Hayes, giving him a one vote electoral victory and ensuring a further four years of Republican control and respect black rights in the South. In return the final federal troops were pulled out the south in 1877 (end of Reconstruction) (the three states which were contested) and the election of Democrat (redeemer) governors wasn't questioned.
