Title: Breckenridge in 1860 Pennsylvania Post by: jaichind on December 07, 2012, 12:55:03 AM I just noticed that Breckenridge got 37.54% in Pennsylvania well ahead of Douglas's 3.52% and 20.51% Connecticut right behind Douglas. I wonder if Breckenridge was the official Dem candidate in PA ergo such a large vote for him over Douglas. Breckenridge was not on the ballot in many Northern States like NY, IL, MI, IW and RI. I wonder how he got such large support in CT.
