Abraham Lincoln left the Whig Party because he chose to join the Republican Party. Option D is correct.

The Whig Party was a political party considered the most important in the United States between 1834 and 1854. Four U.S. Presidents were Whigs: William Henry Harrison, John Tyler, Zachary Taylor, and Millard Fillmore.
