Why were Democrats angry after the presidential election of 1876?

The 1876 elections infuriated the Democrats because they thought their candidate had truly won.

Democrats believed that Samuel J. Tilden, their candidate, had won the election, which was made worse by the fact that he had a larger share of the popular vote. Rutherford B. Hayes managed to negotiate despite this and win the Electoral college. The votes were settled by an informal, "back-room" agreement known as the Compromise of 1877.

In exchange for the Republicans agreeing to evacuate federal troops from the South, which put an end to Reconstruction, the Democrats granted to Hayes 20 of the disputed electoral votes, giving him an 185–184 win.

Republican Hayes lost the popular vote to Democratic Tilden in the 1876 election, which the Republicans won with 1 electoral vote. People were nevertheless opposed to Hayes' close victory, and many Democrats expressed concerns, which had an impact on Reconstruction.

The states of Louisiana, Arkansas and Tennessee rapidly acted to comply with these terms. However, the Lincoln plan was not acceptable to Congress.

Johnson.

The looming showdown between Lincoln and the Congress over competing reconstruction plans never occurred. The president was assassinated on April 14, 1865. His successor, Andrew Johnson of Tennessee, lacked his predecessor’s skills in handling people; those skills would be badly missed. Johnson’s plan envisioned the following:

Pardons would be granted to those taking a loyalty oath

No pardons would be available to high Confederate officials and persons owning property valued in excess of $20,000

A state needed to abolish slavery before being readmitted

A state was required to repeal its secession ordinance before being readm
