Horace Greeley presidential campaign, 1872 In the run-up to the 1872 U.S. Presidential election, major changes occurred in the United States of America. Specifically, the 15th Amendment gave African-Americans the right to vote and cracked down on the Ku Klux Klan. In addition, the economy was still in good shape and President Grant's corruption scandals for the most part haven't become known about yet. With this background, incumbent U.S. President was able to decisively defeat Horace Greeley, the candidate of both the Democrats and the Liberal Republicans (a breakaway party that split off from the Republican Party due to its members' dislike of the corruption of the Republicans and the Republicans' Reconstruction policies), in the 1872 election.
