RE: 1860 and 1864 election vote question
Hi Mr. Hess. I found the 1860 results in Paul Angle's Here I Have Lived: A History of Lincoln's Springfield.

The vote in Springfield:

Lincoln...........1395
Douglas.........1326
Breckinridge...31
Bell...............16

In Sangamon County:

Douglas.........3598
Lincoln..........3556
Bell...............130
Breckinridge...77

So, it was close, but Lincoln carried Springfield, and Douglas carried Sangamon County.
