Was Abraham Lincoln elected to the Senate after the Lincoln-Douglas debate?
Lincoln was not elected to the Senate after the Lincoln-Douglas debate in 1858. US Senators were still elected by state legislatures. The Republicans won a slender majority in popular vote, but the malapportioned Illinois state-senate seats resulted in a majority for Stephen Douglas. The Lincoln-Douglas debates were widely reprinted throughout the country, and Lincoln gained invitations for speaking engagements. Major speeches like the 1859 Cooper Union speech set the groundwork for his presidential run in 1860.
