What was the Compromise of 1877? Explain. Within your answer, discuss the role of Samuel Tilden and Rutherford B. Hayes in this compromise. The Southern Democrats were angry because, in the Election of 1876, Samuel Tilden, a Democrat, won the Popular Vote. Yet, Rutherford B. Hayes, the Republican, won the Electoral Vote, and, thus, the Presidency. Many felt the South would rebel if Tilden did not get to be President. However, the Democrats agreed to recognize Hayes as President if the 5 military zones of the South were removed. Hayes agreed to this. Yet, this led to the military protection of the African Americans disappearing and the enforcement of unjust segregation laws in the South. Copyright, USHistoryTeachers.com All Rights Reserved.
