Answer:

B. Won only forty percent of the popular vote.

Explanation:

Republican Abraham Lincoln won the Electoral College by a landslide with 180 votes on November 6, 1860, but he got less than the 40% of the popular vote. The Democratic Party went divided to the election over the issues of slavery and states´rights, and that factor contributed to its defeat.
