Show Notes

1876 was not a Landslide.

The 1876 U.S. presidential election between Rutherford B. Hayes and Samuel J. Tilden was one of the most contested in American history, with widespread allegations of voter fraud and irregularities in several Southern states.

Ultimately, a special Electoral Commission awarded Hayes the presidency by a single electoral vote, resolving the dispute through a political compromise that effectively ended Reconstruction.
