even after the electoral commission delivered its rulings, the house of representatives could have blocked the inauguration of hayes by refusing to certify the election results. though some house democrats hoped to do just that, they were unable to prevent the house of representatives from blocking certification, as many house democrats joined with their republican colleagues in accepting the results. during the proceedings of the electoral commission, high-ranking members of both parties had discussed the possibility of declaring hayes the winner in exchange for the removal of all federal troops from the south. the compromise of 1877, as it became known, may have played a role in preventing the house from challenging the electoral commission's rulings, although author roy morris, jr. argues that the compromise "was more a mutual concession of the obvious than a device for controlling larger events." some other historians, including c. vann woodward, have argued that the compromise of 1877 played the decisive role in determining the outcome of the election. on march 2, two days before the end of grant's term, congress declared hayes the victor of the 1876 presidential election. hayes took office on march 4, and withdrew the last federal soldiers from the south in april 1877, bringing an end to the reconstruction era.
