Abraham Lincoln was elected president on November 6, 1860, before the Civil War officially began. His election led to the secession of several Southern states, which viewed his policies as a threat to slavery. The Civil War started in April 1861, and Lincoln was re-elected for a second term on November 8, 1864, during the conflict.
