The two major candidates in 1848 were the winner, Zachary Taylor , who ran as a Whig and Lewis Cass, Democrat from Michigan. Martin Van Buren, ran on the anti-slavery Free Soikl ticket. He did not win any electoral votes, but polled 10.1 % of the popular vote and likely swung the election in New York,Massachusetts and Vermont to Taylor.
