Hello JohnAdams1800 and thanks for all your improvements to this article. However, despite the improvements, the article fails criterion 2b since there are too many unreferenced paragraphs. I counted a total of 26 unreferenced paragraph in the body of the article. Examples are the paragraphs starting with "At the start of the American Civil War,", "By the 1920s, as memories of the Civil War faded", and "In the 1928 presidential election, Al Smith received". According to criterion 2b, these passages require inline citations "no later than the end of the paragraph". I suggest that you add all the relevant references before a renomination.

A few other observations

• WP:EARWIG detects no copyvios
• light blue represents southern border states and Missouri and Kentucky had dual competing Confederate and Unionist governments; this clause sounds odd because it repeats "and"
• Kentucky and Missouri both had dual competing Confederate and Unionist governments with the Confederate government of Kentucky and Confederate government of Missouri. add "the" before "Confederate government of Missouri"
• Filled unexpired term and was later elected in his own right. incomplete sentence
