Constitutional Unionists were a political group in the United States, particularly active in the mid-19th century, that sought to maintain the Union and uphold the Constitution amid rising sectional tensions. They emphasized the importance of compromise and national unity, often advocating for a moderate approach to contentious issues like slavery. Their platform aimed to appeal to both Northern and Southern interests, promoting the idea that adherence to the Constitution could prevent disunion and civil conflict. The group was notably represented in the 1860 presidential election by John Bell, who garnered support from those wary of the more extreme positions of the major parties.
