Original Note:
"The Electoral College contributed to ending slavery, since Abraham Lincoln, having earned only 39.9% of the popular vote in 1860, nevertheless won a crushing victory in the Electoral College — leading many Southern slaveholders to stampede to secession in 1860 and 1861." https://www.nationalaffairs.com/publications/detail/in-defense-of-the-electoral-college
