Under Lincoln's Ten Percent Plan, a former Confederate state would be recognized if at least ten percent of its voters from the 1860 election took an oath of allegiance to the Union and accepted the end of slavery. Once this threshold was met, the state could reestablish its government and apply for readmission to the Union. The plan aimed to encourage a quick and lenient reintegration of the Southern states after the Civil War.
