Georgia voters chose 10 representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president. In the election, Southern Democratic candidate 14th Vice President of the United States John C. Breckinridge and his running mate Senator Joseph Lane won the plurality of the vote against Constitutional Union candidate Senator John Bell and his running mate Governor of Massachusetts Edward Everett as well as Democratic candidate Senator Stephen A. Douglas and his running mate 41st Governor of Georgia Herschel V. Johnson. The Republican Party and its candidate Abraham Lincoln did not have significant ballot distribution in the state. As no candidate received a majority of the popular vote, the election was thrown into the General Assembly, which voted to select 10 Breckinridge electors.
