The Whigs were the opposition to the Jacksonian Democrats.
The Republican Party emerged in the mid-1850s as a new political party in the North with a central antislavery philosophy. It attracted a diverse coalition of former Whigs, Free Soilers, and antislavery Democrats who opposed the expansion of slavery into new territories. The party's rise to prominence culminated in the election of Abraham Lincoln as president in 1860.
The Whigs and Democrats avoided and evaded the issue of slavery in the election of 1848 by splitting down the middle on who was for and who was against slavery. Whigs and Democrats in the South wanted to keep slavery. Whigs and Democrats in the North wanted to abolish slavery.
