The 1868 United States presidential election in Wisconsin was held on November 3, 1868, as part of the 1868 United States presidential election. State voters chose eight electors to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.
Wisconsin was won by Republican candidate Ulysses S. Grant, over Democratic candidate, Horatio Seymour. Grant won the state with 56.22% of the popular vote, winning the state's eight electoral votes.[1]
Lafayette County voted for a Republican for the first time in this election and would continue to vote Republican in every election until 1912.
