Impeached 17 - Results of the 1880 Presidential Election

Alternate Election Poll

Benjamin Gratz Brown is the first Democratic candidate since 1856 to win a Presidential Election, and the first Liberal Republican to win the Presidency ever.

Most notably, 3 Californian Delegates went to the National Democrats due to their stances on the gold standard.

Roscoe Conkling, refusing to take his loss with grace, made a 30-minute speech, talking about how, with Benjamin Gratz Brown winning the Presidency, America will fall into a dark age. It is yet to be seen if that will happen or not.
