Election of 1932 Two completely different men with two completely different ideas

 Hoover’s popularity as President was decreasing just as fast as the economy…….  When he was elected in 1928, he was extremely popular, optimistic, and confident. “The United States is nearer to the final triumph over poverty than ever before in history”  A few months later the stock market crashed “We have now passed the worst, and shall rapidly recover”  The economy will fix itself President Hoover and the Depression

 Depression deepens:  1929: 23,000 businesses fail  1932: 32,000 businesses fail  Average income in 1929: $2,300  Average income in 1932: $1,600  Unemployment in 1929: 5%  Unemployment in 1932: 25%  Farmers feel the worst effects of the Great Depression: no government aide, no money to farm, no one is buying crops, dust storms ruin fields.

Seattle’s Hooverville  Seattle’s Hooverville was the biggest, and longest lasting in the nation.  Stood for ten years:  Covered nine acres  Housed 1,200 people  Claimed its own community government; unofficial mayor

 In 1932, 20,000 jobless WWI veterans protested in Washington, D.C.  Called themselves the Bonus Army  Demanded immediate payment of a pension bonus that was promised.  Things got violent so General Douglas MacArthur used guns, tanks, and tear gas to fight off the protestors.  Hoover took responsibility for MacArthur’s actions

THE ELECTION OF 1932  President Herbert Hoover  Governor Franklin Delano Roosevelt VS

Ideas on Government HERBERT HOOVERFRANKLIN ROOSEVELT  Minimal government action  “The key to recovery was confidence”  State and local governments should handle relief  Start with prosperity at the top  foster economic growth  Expand government roles  Federal government should handle relief  Unemployment commission and relief administration  Startled by uneven prosperity  help the lower classes first

Campaigning HERBERT HOOVER FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT  “Brother Can you Spare a Dime?”  Once I built a railroad I made it run Made it race against time. Once I built a railroad Now it’s done Brother, Can you Spare a Dime?  “Happy Days are here Again!”  Happy days are here again, The skies above are clear again Let us sing a song of cheer again – Happy days are here again.

“This Campaign is more than a contest between two men.... It is a contest between two philosophies of government.” -President Hoover, 1932

Electoral Votes Roosevelt: 472 Hoover: 59 Hoover won six states, and FDR won by a huge margin of 7 million popular votes.

 To learn about Roosevelt’s New Deal policies, read pgs and take notes on the 3 R’s of FDR’s New Deal:  Relief (Immediate response to bring stability)  Recovery (Improvements made to the economic system to stimulate growth)  Reform (Programs implemented to stop a future economic downturn)
