The South was very displeased with the election of Abraham Lincoln as President of the United States in 1860. They were convinced Lincoln was going to end slavery. ... He also believed that slavery shouldn't spread. When he got the nomination from the anti-slavery Republican Party in 1860, the South was very concerned.
