We had a reconstruction program as well as military governors in a handful of States down there after the Civil War, grants was pretty checked out and his administration was super corrupt, and his successor in the 1876 election, Hayes lost. They had those military Governors send competing slates of electors saying they won and there is a big brewhaha and it was decided they would allow the Republicans to steal that election with Hayes as president for ending reconstruction.
