The correct answer is the Civil War

When Lincoln was reelected the country was engulfed in the Civil War and Lincoln was reelected based on the idea that he would help end the war which indeed did happen soon after his reelection. At the same time however, he was assassinated just 2 months into his second term so Andrew Johnson became the president.
