Hello, I'm from the past (yesterday). How's the post-election world? Does the USA still exist? Well, let's go back in time and look at another election. This time, Kansas 1855 when settlers were deciding if it should be a free state or a slave state. 

And because of that choice, in one week in 1856, pro-slavery ruffians sacked a town in Kansas, a senator got beat up with a cane, and abolitionists murdered three pro-slavery Kansans.
