    The correct answer is C) the victory of Abraham Lincoln in the Election of 1860

    Following Lincoln's win, a month later, they declared that they were seceding from the Union because the election of Abraham Lincoln is a clear sign of hostility of non-slave states towards the slave states and they would not take it any more, or at least that's how they described it.
