Restricted Border States taken for granted

[MikeyB]

Would love to get everyone's thoughts. At what point in the war, did Lincoln have enough confidence in the outcome, that he no longer made political decisions meant to not offend the Border States? Was it as late as his election, or is there evidence of decisions and policies Lincoln made that might have been offensive to the border states well before the election?
