It made Lincoln a popular candidate for the Democratic Party, which approved of GrantÍs strategy.
It allowed Sherman to capture Atlanta, which increased LincolnÍs popularity in the election.
It horrified many voters in the North, who decided to support Andrew Johnson instead of Lincoln.
It lost Lincoln support among abolitionists, who wanted him to focus on freeing enslaved workers instead.
