Republican Rutherford B. Hayes was declared winner of the 1876 presidential election over Democrat Samuel J. Tilden, even though Tilden had won the popular vote 50.1 to 47.95%. A special US congressional panel had awarded Florida’s electors to Rutherford B. Hayes. Democrats acquiesced to Hayes's election on the condition that he withdraw remaining US troops protecting Republican officeholders in the South, thus officially ending the Reconstruction era.
