Lewis]] tidak berhasil mencalonkan diri kembali, kalah dari mantan Perwakilan AS dari Partai Demokrat [[George S. Houston]].

{{Elections in Alabama sidebar}} The '''1874 Alabama gubernatorial election''' took place on November 3, 1874, in order to elect the [[governor of Alabama]]. Incumbent [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican]] [[David P. Lewis]] unsuccessfully ran for reelection, losing to [[Democratic Party (United States)|Democratic]] former [[United States House of Representatives|U.S. Representative]] [[George S. Houston]]. This election would end an era of serious competition between the local Democratic and Republican parties, and start a 112-year win streak for [[Democratic Party (United States)|Democrats]] in the [[Governor|gubernatorial]] level.
 
== General Election ==
Incumbent governor David P. Lewis was a former Democrat who represented [[Lawrence County, Alabama|Lawrence County]] at the [[Alabama in the American Civil War#Secession|state secession convention]] in the prelude to the [[American Civil War]], voting against secession but eventually serving as a legislator in the [[Provisional Confederate Congress]]; he would go on to be a delegate at the [[1868 Democratic National Convention]] for Alabama before his joining the Republicans.<ref name="woolfolk-article3">{{cite journal|last1=Woolfolk|first1=Sarah Van V.|author-link=Sarah Woolfolk Wiggins|date=1964|title=Amnesty and Pardon and Republicanism in Alabama|url=https://archive.org/details/alabama-historical-quarterly-v26n02/|journal=The Alabama Historical Quarterly|volume=26|issue=2|pages=240–248|access-date=4 September 2023}}</ref>{{rp|p=241}}<ref name="eoa-david-lewis3">{{cite web|title=Lewis, David P.|url=https://encyclopediaofalabama.org/article/david-p-lewis-1872-74/|website=[[Encyclopedia of Alabama]]|access-date=5 September 2023}}</ref> Having been an advocate for the re-enfranchisement of [[Scalawag|scalawags]] who had served with the Confederacy<ref name="woolfolk-article3" />{{rp|pp=242–248}} and being a longtime resident of Alabama, Lewis was picked as the Republican nominee for the [[1872 Alabama gubernatorial election|previous election]].<ref name="eoa-david-lewis3" /> However, during his tenure, existing tensions between the factions of the Republicans,{{efn|Most notably consisting of antebellum Unionists, or scalawags; northerners who had moved south post-war, or [[carpetbaggers]]; and the newly enfranchised population of former slaves, or [[freedman#United States|freedmen]].<ref name="eoa-alabama-republicans">{{cite web |title=Republican Party in Alabama |url=https://encyclopediaofalabama.org/article/republican-party-in-alabama/ |website=[[Encyclopedia of Alabama]] |access-date=5 September 2023}}</ref>}} particularly over civil rights and [[Reconstruction in the United States|Reconstruction]] began to boil over, and the political violence of the [[Ku Klux Klan]] began to target many of the party's voters.<ref name="eoa-alabama-republicans3" />
 
The Democratic nominee was [[George S. Houston]], a former representative and Senator for the state who had been pro-Union at the time of secession, but remained in Alabama through the war, though he took no part in its fighting; he was chosen likewise in an effort to appeal to a broader coalition which included Unionists dissatisfied with Lewis' administration.<ref name="eoa-houston3">{{cite web|title=Houston, George S.|url=https://encyclopediaofalabama.org/article/george-s-houston-1874-78/|website=Encyclopedia of Alabama|access-date=5 September 2023}}</ref> The Democrats presented themselves as "[[redeemers]]" who would restore White dominance and eliminate Republican corruption.<ref name="eoa-houston3" />
 
Democrats used their comparative unity on the issues of civil rights and Reconstruction to their advantage; the dominance of these issues and the division of the Republicans on them, along with voter intimidation and fraud, handed Democrats the victory.<ref name="eoa-david-lewis3" /><ref name="eoa-alabama-republicans3" /> After this, the Republicans remained out of the gubernatorial office until [[1986 Alabama gubernatorial election|1986]], ending a period in which several elections had even been won by them and beginning a long period of Democratic dominance in the state.<ref name="eoa-alabama-republicans3" /><ref name="woolfolk-article3" />{{rp|p=240}}

The beginning of Democratic dominance in the state also led to the loss of the rights that had been gained by the [[African-Americans|Black]] population, and the beginning of [[Segregation in the United States|segregation]] in the state. Soon after the election, the state would pass a new constitution which mandated the effective racial separation of schools,<ref name="eoa-houston3" /> and established funding for each race's schools through the [[poll tax]], which led in many areas to a lack of any Black schools. Also required was the segregation of prisons, and laws prohibiting interracial marriage and sex remained in place; however, Black suffrage remained mostly intact.<ref name="birth-of-jim-crow2">{{cite journal|last1=Martin|first1=David|date=1993|title=The Birth of Jim Crow in Alabama 1865-1896|url=https://escholarship.org/uc/item/5x65v6ch|journal=National Black Law Journal|language=en|volume=13|issue=1|pages=184–197|access-date=5 September 2023}}</ref>{{rp|pp=193–194}} By the 1880s, however, perceived threats to Democratic dominance from the ascendant [[Populist Party (United States)|Populists]] led to a repeat of the terror and fraud like those against Republicans in prior years, only this time the target was Black and poor White citizens; further laws were passed to enforce segregation and white dominance, including stricter vagrancy and work contract laws.<ref name="birth-of-jim-crow2" />{{rp|pp=194–196}} In 1901, a new constitution had been created with the explicit aim of establishing, "within the limits imposed by the federal constitution", a system of white supremacy; this constitution effectively disenfranchised Blacks and many poor Whites by establishing, among other things, property requirements, literacy tests, and a cumulative poll tax.<ref name="law-review-stewart-constitution2">{{cite journal|last1=Stewart|first1=William H.|date=2001|title=The Tortured History of Efforts to Revise the Alabama Constitution of 1901|url=https://www.law.ua.edu/pubs/lrarticles/Volume%2053/Issue%201/Stewart.pdf|journal=Alabama Law Review|publisher=[[University of Alabama]]|volume=53|issue=1|pages=295–333|access-date=5 September 2023}}</ref>{{rp|pp=295–296}}<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Flynt|first1=Wayne|date=2001|title=Alabama's Shame: The Historical Origins of the 1901 Constitution|url=https://www.law.ua.edu/pubs/lrarticles/Volume%2053/Issue%201/Flynt.pdf|journal=Alabama Law Review|publisher=[[University of Alabama]]|volume=53|issue=1|pages=67–76|access-date=5 September 2023}}</ref>{{rp|pp=72–75}}
