D. Southern states were upset and began to secede

Explanation:

Despite the fact that Abraham Lincoln promised that he would not eradicate slavery, he finds the advancement of slavery unwelcoming in the future states, so 7 states from the south secede after the elections in 1980 because they saw treats towards the institution of slavery which happens to be what their economy depends on.
