The End of Reconstruction Why did Reconstruction efforts finally end? Heavy taxes and corruption for repairs Lack of Northern support for racial equality The Solid South – Southern Democrats had reversed many of the reforms

The Compromise of 1877 Samuel Tilden wins popular vote over Rutherford B. Hayes but there is a a dispute over the electoral vote The Democrats agree to make Rutherford B. Hayes President IF all the federal troops are removed from the South THIS IS THE END OF RECONSTRUCTION!
