The Southerners and the blacks supported the 10% plan because they would be allowed to form new state government as long as 10% of the State's votes supported the Union. The blacks supported the Union because it gave them new rights. The Northerners did not support the 10% plan because they felt that Lincoln's laws were too soft and they wanted it to be raised to 50%.
