That's correct. As it stood, Douglas carried New Jersey in the North (seven electoral votes), and a combined Democratic ticket would have easily overcome the Republicans in California and Oregon, a total of seven electoral votes. That plus the Southern and Border states would make 134 votes, still a Lincoln victory by a large margin.
