One thing Lincoln proposed to do in his last public address was toÊ present a plan for re-construction of the states. He also proposed that they would have a national Thanksgiving to celebrate that the war was over and that the north had won.

Atlanta was a major Southern city and important to the Southern war efforts. This created more support in the North, which was losing patience with the progress of the war. Lincoln ran against Democrat George B. McClellan. He was famous nationwide when he was a general in the Union army. Lincoln won by an Electoral College landslide as McClellan won only three states, New Jersey, Delaware and Kentucky.The popular vote was closer however, yet still Lincoln won 55% of the popular vote to McClellan's 45%.
