Laburpena: The disputed presidential election of 1876 between republican Rutherford Bitchard Hayes of Ohio and democrat Samuel Jones Tilden of New York brought the country into a political and constitutional crisis and nearly to a new civil war. The contested results in three southern states with each party claiming victory in Florida, Louisiana and South Caroline, the three former confederate states still dominated by republicans, resulted in two different set of electors sent to Washington. The Constitution provided no remedy for that situation, and the Congress was divided into a democratic House and a republican Senate. To solve that problem and decide the objections presented to the certificates and the final outcome of the election, both parties finally agreed to create a fifteen member Electoral Commission composed by five representatives, five senators and five Supreme Court justices.
