Grant plans to run for another term in 1876 but Republican leaders, shaken by Democratic gains, resist. On election day two names head the ballot: Rutherford B. Hayes, Republican, and Samuel Tilden, Democrat. Hayes wins the majority of the Northern votes, Tilden the South, and in a supposed "deal" Hayes agrees to remove remaining troops from the South in exchange for support for his presidency. A later interpretation by 20th century historian C. Van Woodward questions this assumption since Tilden would have removed the troops as well He suggests that the exchange instead may have been for internal improvements in the South.
