Stephen A. Douglas (1813 – 1861) was an American politician of the Democratic party, who lost the presidential election against Abraham Lincoln in 1860. He had been senator of the United States since 1858.
In the slavery matter, he defended <u>the principle of popular sovereignty</u> stating that each state should be able to decide (vote) on whether slavery should be allowed within its borders or not. In his debates against Lincoln he promoted the Freeport Doctrine, following the mentioned line of voting for the slavery issue, stating that each state should be able to rule out slavery if wishing so.

The Kansas-Nebraska Act implemented the concept of popular sovereignty, meaning that the citizens had the ability to vote on whether or not they wanted the institution of slavery. This ability for the citizens to choose disregards the Missouri Compromise, which stated that any territory above the 36'30 line would be free from slavery. Even though both states are above this line, they can become slave states if their citizens vote for it.
