Best Answer

Lincoln won the Republican Party nomination in 1860 and was elected president later that year. Presidential Electors were chosen in each of the 33 states by November 6. Electors cast their votes in their states on December 5, and the sealed votes were sent to Washington, DC. The Presidential election of Abraham Lincoln was Constitutionally certified in a joint session of Congress on December 11, 1860. He was inaugurated President on March 4, 1861.

Lincoln was elected US President in November of 1860 for his first term. He was reelected for a second term in November of 1864. After his second inauguration in 1865, he was assassinated on 14 April 1865.
