The easiest i can put this is the North was the Republicans and the South was the Democrats. And the Whig party didnt exist anymore, it eventualy formed into the Republican party as seen above.

The Civil War political cause is based on beyond the official stance, what was the real political reason for the Civil War. The Democrats, by then known as the Slave Party, believed that slavery was protected by the Constitution, and that northerners were determined to end slavery and destroy the system they had grown wealthy with. The Republicans were former Whigs, to whom the abolition of slavery was important enough for them to split from the Whigs to form a party that would have this issue as its main focus. Lincoln, a Republican, was much more ambivalent about the issue of slavery than many of his more radical brethren. His main concern was keeping the Union intact.
no it wasnt because the Northern Whigs joined with other opponents of slavery.and the north was against slavery yes they were against slavery the democrats were for it
In the process of government in free nations, like minded political persons find that working together as a group is a good way to accomplish a political agenda. For example, in the US when the Whig Party dissolved over sectionalism and the issue of slavery, people against slavery formed a new political party dedicated to end slavery in the US. These political minded people did not have to form a new political party, but they believed that in organized numbers within a party slavery could be ended.This is one example of how a political party can be formed.

The Whig Party's platform completely avoided addressing the issue of slavery in the years leading up to the Civil War. They focused more on economic issues and internal improvements rather than taking a stance on the divisive issue of slavery.
The political party that stood against the spread of slavery was the newly formed Republican party. The party was emerged to combat the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854 which aimed to extend slavery.
