Grant and Sherman
The battle (battlefield) that Lincoln and his wife traveled to see in 1864 was Petersburg.
Andrew Johnson was Abraham Lincoln's vice-presidential running mate in the 1864 presidential election. He succeeded Lincoln when Lincoln was assassinated in April of 1865.
The fall of Atlanta made the biggest news, though its military significance was less than the Union victory in the Shenandoah and the liberation of the port of Mobile. It was these three successes in the run-up to the election that raised civilian morale and saved Lincoln from being defeated.
William T. Sherman's capture of Atlanta during the Battle of Atlanta changed voters' minds about supporting Lincoln in the 1864 election. The battle happened on July 22, 1864.
