Show Notes

1916 was not a Landslide.

The 1916 U.S. presidential election saw incumbent Woodrow Wilson narrowly defeat Republican Charles Evans Hughes, emphasizing peace and progressive reforms while Hughes criticized Wilson’s leadership and advocated a stronger foreign policy.

With a slim 277-254 Electoral College win and a razor-thin margin in California, the outcome reflected a deeply divided electorate and was far from a landslide.
