Answer:

Despite having a low win chances, Lincoln won with a overwhelming majority of votes. ... He received around 55% of the popular vote and 212 electoral votes to McClellan's 21 votes. A huge part of the Union soldiers voted for Lincoln as well, demonstrating their readiness to keep combative and denial to accept defeat.
