Question

As a result of the Compromise of 1877, who became the president of the United States?
A. Frederick Douglass
B. Samuel Tilden
C. Rutherford Hayes
D. Ulysses Grant

Answer 1

C

Answer 2

In what became known as the Compromise of 1877, Hayes was elected Pres-
ident. In return, the remaining federal troops were withdrawn from the South,
a southerner was appointed to a powerful cabinet position, and southern states
were guaranteed federal subsidies to build railroads and improve their ports.
So yes, I agree it's C.
