The first batch to secede was purely because they were afraid of Republican rhetoric regarding slavery. The second batch to secede were appalled that Lincoln made a call for volunteers to put down the rebels after the siege of Fort Sumter. They were already pissed about the election, but the raising of an army to attack the South was what pushed them over the edge.
