In almost every thread where the USA loses the Civil War President Abraham Lincoln is defeated for reelection in 1864. I was wondering would it be possible for him to win reelection after the US loses the Civil War? There was a lot of popular legislation that was passed during his first term, including a lot of measures that the pre-war southern senators had blocked. That could be a positive he could use, he could also talk up all the positives of no longer having to deal with the South especially over the slavery issue. So how can Lincoln lose the ACW and still be reelected?
