After Lincoln's election in 1860, prominent Georgia leaders, including Governor Joseph E. Brown and other influential figures, called for the state to remain in the Union. They argued against secession, emphasizing the importance of maintaining the Union for economic and political stability. However, despite these calls, Georgia ultimately seceded in January 1861, influenced by the prevailing sentiment in favor of disunion among many residents.
In response to Abraham Lincoln's election in 1860, Alexander H. Stephens, who would later become the Vice President of the Confederate States, initially called for Georgia to remain in the Union. He believed that secession was not the solution to the political issues facing the South. However, as tensions escalated, Georgia ultimately joined the Confederacy in 1861. Stephens' early stance reflects the divided sentiments within the Southern states at the time.
They were called Loyalists. Those who supported freedom from Britan were called Patriots.
A poll watcher is someone who is appointed by a candidate or a political party to observe the election day procedures in a precinct, not the voters. The election judge or poll managers of the polling place will designate a place where watchers can remain throughout election day. Conversations between watchers and voters are usually not permitted within the polling place, depending on the state. Watchers are never permitted to interfere with the orderly conduct of the election or influence any voter in the casting this ballot. A poll watcher simply watches the processes carried out by the election workers, to ensure that all applicable laws are being followed properly. A poll watcher's involvement regarding voters would be to challenge an election worker who might be influencing a voter's individual election decisions, or if an election worker inappropriately excludes a voter. While the sponsors for poll watchers have a vested interest in ensuring the election is fair and free of obstruction or influence, every citizen should also have a vested interest in the election being fair. If an election is proven to be fair and free of influence or obstruction, then all parties can have greater confidence in the results of the election and are likely to provide to greater support to successful issues and elected officials. Overall, greater confidence in election results could result in greater citizen unity in the direction of our city, county and nation.
