In this video, Heimler walks you through everything you need to know about APUSH Unit 5 Topic 7 (5.7) which is all about the election of 1860 in which Abraham Lincoln became president without a single electoral vote from the Southern states. That convinced the South that they had lost all their political efficacy in the United States and therefore seceded from the Union, creating the conditions for the Civil War.
