Question 2

The 1876 Presidential Election was one of the most controversial elections in U.S. history. Political corruption in South Carolina, Louisiana, and Florida made it next to impossible to determine the winner. A political compromise was reached whereby all of the electoral votes would be awarded to the Republican candidate in exchange for a Republican pledge to remove federal troops from the south, thereby ending Reconstruction and leading to the disenfranchisement of African American voters. In the election of 1876,
 
  a. John Quincy Adams was awarded the Presidency over Andrew Jackson.
  b. Thomas Jefferson was awarded the Presidency over John Adams.
  c. Benjamin Harrison was awarded the Presidency over Grover Cleveland.
  d. Rutherford B. Hayes was awarded the Presidency over Sam Tilden.
  e. Andrew Jackson was awarded the Presidency over Henry Clay.
