The Fourth Presidential Election was the first Presidential Election after the 14th Amendment, the election would also be held during the Second American Civil War, so multiple states did not participate in the election.
==Candidates==
======Constitutional Democratic======
The Constitutional Democrats had seen an upset in the prior election, but would renominate George Benckendorf during the time of war for his military experience. William Scott would be added to the ticket to balance it out, being one of a few loyalists from Virginia.
===Democratic Union===
The Democratic Union had just been highly discredited to the people after their chairman Linda Banks seceded with the rest of New Jersey to try and help the New England Republic. John Tremble was nominated to the position as one of the highest ranking Democratic Union members left, and Gerald Smith was nominated to appeal to a sense of unity as a candidate who remained loyal after his state seceded.
===Independents===
Alexander Hamilton, a Federalist, decided to run on an Independent Ticket to appeal to unity across the nation, picking John Berkman, a former Speaker who highly supported unity.
=== Dropped Out Candidates ===
==== Democratic-Republican Party ====
The Democratic-Republican Party had reformed after the fall of the Democratic Party, the Party was ready for it's first Presidential Election, nominating Thomas Jefferson the former Secretary of State. For the Vice President they had chosen George Clinton, the former Vice President of the United States. Thomas Jefferson would drop out in July after his home state of Virginia seceded from the United States during the Second American Civil War. 
==Results==
The Election would be very lopsided for George Benckendorf, the most lopsided election other than George Washington's unanimous runs. John Tremble finished in second, and instead would go on to serve in the house, Hamilton would win 13%, but only 1 elector, putting him in last place.
