The Southern states were not ready for a republican president. Especially one who raised some serious questions.
Also prior to his election the southern states had already threatened to secede.
Hope this helps.
The Bourbon Democrats prevented the populists from gaining political power in Louisiana by refusing to double the standard of money in silver.

The framers of the US Constitution were worried about keeping a balance between the power of the presidency and the power of the other branches of the federal government.
This is evident from the fact that the Constitution establishes a system of checks and balances. This ensures that the legislative and judicial branch have the ability to regulate the presidents power. This fear of a strong central leader stemmed from America's experience as part of the British Empire. After seeing how King George III abused his power, the framers wanted to make sure that this would not happen again.
