MIDTERMS: CRANKY CONFEDERATES ..C.S.A. CONGRESS ELECTIONS OF 1863-4

from My History Can Beat Up Your Politics · host Bruce Carlson

It had a short history, but within the time of the Civil War, the Confederate States had two Congressional elections. The second in 1863 (and 1864 in some states) should be seen as a midterm, and like those in the Northern states, it didn't go well for the party in power, that being the increasingly unpopular government of Jefferson Davis.
