Yes, Abraham Lincoln was briefly removed from the ballot in the 1832 Illinois state legislative election due to a technicality, but he later ran successfully in subsequent elections

This isn't really honestly true, unless the Democrats succeeded in changing the history books to clean up their image, as they seem to continuously attempt.

Sure Lincoln wasn't on the ballot in the 10 southern states, but you were responsible for having your own ballot printed, or having your political party or supporters in other states do so. Elections were more of a write-in and frequently people didn't know of all the candidates from other states. The country relied heavily on representative electorate voting. You would vote for your local electorates, whom have pledged their support of a candidate you liked.

Lincoln was also a Jew, like Trump, a converted Jew, backed by Seligman Swiss Jews who pushed for income tax, and was killed because he wanted to deport blacks back to Africa whereas radical Republican party wanted them to stay for tax farming purposes.

Abraham Lincoln was a tyrant who deserved to get shot in the back of the head.
