tilden, who's the democratic governor of new york. tilden wins the popular by, you know, i don't know, 250,000 votes or so, maybe more. but there are a lot of voting irregularity, these really across the country. but especially in the south. and there are a few southern states that are still being run by what were derisively called, you know, carpetbagger, northern republican governments, louisiana, south carolina and florida. and so there was a lot of discrepancy about, in fact, had won those states. and because, you know, the electoral college was close enough that whoever won states was going to win when the election and so, you know, everybody or most of you probably can remember back 2000 when we had sort of a similar situation florida again, but in 2000, of course, it eventually went to the supreme court in 1876, in the electoral commission was created to determine who in hayes or tilden would win the the electoral votes. those three southern states, garfield spoke up and said that this commission was a terrible idea. this is no

the senate that he would be compelled to vote for tilden on the federal commission. so a sort of a bribe. this is how they understood. you read the letters from this time. and so this doesn't happen because davis may be, you know, in a in an in ethical be good way decides that this is inappropriate and he can't possibly serve on the electoral commission once he has elected to the senate by the state legislature in illinois so he declines and he's replaced joseph p bradley, a republican who votes with the republicans. and as a result you get result of the election of 1876 where hayes is going to become president. i want to stress again, this is completely understood to be partizan issue and that result was expected once. you get bradley on the commission some. people think maybe he will change his mind, but in general, democrats had been very excited about the commission. they been the ones pushing the commission in congress and they sort of had the upper hand because if the joint if the 22nd joint rule was enforced, the election would go to the house and they were th

and, tilden insisted that his managers in the house in the coming years investigate the election. investigate what had happened in the election to prove it had been that. famously in 1878 was what was known as the -- witch tried to investigate what happened with the point of proving that republicans had engaged in all kinds of corruption, it backfired spectacularly. which i can tell you more about what i don't want to take up too much more time. so, the things that i yeah think is the main takeaways about this particular election are that this was a real political battle that operated through partisanship in a way that people understood that partisanship could achieve certain kinds of goals. those were positive knowles from the perspective of the republicans. we won the civil war. we need to maintain the way that things operate now. for democrats, we want our power as well. from that perspective, i think there are similarities to today. it also was sort of a unique moment in american history. >> i have no idea about that. >> i thought it was -- >> everyone does. it is in every tex

was passed well intentioned to try to solve some of the problems that were manifested in the hayes-tilden election of 1876 but the problem is it's a terribly drafted law. scholars, politicians, lawyers all concede it was confusing, ambiguous, and again led to the problems of january 6. i should also mention that presidents who won the popular vote almost universally in our system also won the electoral college. recently that hasn't been the case. twice in this short century we've had presidents elected by the electoral college who lost the popular vote by millions of votes. so is that reflection of what we all think our democracy is all about? i don't think so. the bill that we have before us now is, i believe, one of the most important pieces of legislation in this congress. because it deals with the structure of democracy itself. all of our policy issues, whether it's the defense department, ukraine, all of the policy issues, health care, all of those things are critically important, but the infrastructure that underlies the system is even more important. we can't do good policy if we d
