Was there an election in 1864? Did Copperheads participate? Those are yes or no questions, btw.

There was an election of sorts. There was an election in some states, no election in the 9 states still in open rebellion, there were elections in occupied-Louisiana and Tennessee but the electoral votes from those states were not counted, and a large number of copperhead elected politicians were either in prison or banished from the union.
