US Election of 1936 Map
Election of 1936 Summary
In the presidential election of 1936, it was mostly a battle between Franklin Roosevelt from the Democratic party and Alf Landon, a Republican.
During his term, Franklin Roosevelt single-handedly dug the economy out of the grave. He boosted it with relief, recovery, and reform. It’s why we have 8-hour workdays, social security, and minimum wage.
As the depression still carried on, people supported the efforts of Franklin Roosevelt. He dominated the vote with one of the biggest landslides in American election history. Roosevelt received 523 electoral votes, compared to just 8 from Landon. Yikes.
