The Lecompton Constitution was a proposed constitution for the state of Kansas written in response to the anti-slavery position of the 1855 Topeka Constitution. This enshrined slavery, protected the rights of slaveholders and allowed voters the choice of allowing more slaves to enter the territory.
Quantrill is referring to an election on the Lecompton Constitution. The Lecompton Constitution was the second of four proposed constitutions for the state of Kansas.
