Election Of…

Today we will be able to: Analyze why Woodrow Wilson won the election of 1912 by examining each of the four candidates, their policies, and how each affected the outcome of the race.

Eugene V. Debs Socialist Party candidate in 1908, 1912, and 1920 Leader of American Railway Union during Pullman Strike (1894) Socialist Party called for the collective (social) ownership of factories, mines, and businesses Completely reject capitalism For the worker and the little guy

William Howard Taft Howard Taft, the incumbent President Hand picked by TR as successor Disliked being president –Not used as a Bully Pulpit Roosevelt Upset over Taft’s Failure to exert strong public Leadership Viewed by republican progressives as too conservative Some look for an alternate candidate

Theodore Roosevelt  Returned for African safari trip disappointed (with Taft)  Tried to win Republican nomination but lost  Left party and joined Progressive party AKA= Bull Moose Party Divided the republican party between Taft and Roosevelt supporters

Time: Election of 1912 Question: Who does the moose, elephant, and donkey represent? What does the cartoon suggest about the election?

Woodrow Wilson Governor of New Jersey Chosen after 45 votes and Disagreements represented the Democratic party Experience included: –President of Princeton University –Governor of New Jersey Considered the ‘safe’ candidate by the political machine

Wilson: Elimination of all monopolies Freedom to all small companies and businesses drastic tariff reduction banking reform more strict on antitrust laws Roosevelt: Elimination of “bad” monopolies, keep good ones End child labor Workman’s compensation Federal Trade Commission (to regulate trade/business) Minimum wage/suffrage for women Initiative, referendum, and recall New Freedom New Nationalism

Political Spectrum Theodore Roosevelt split the Republican party, grouping in the “Progressive Party”, and Taft was a Republican Taft was defeated by Roosevelt However, Roosevelt did not snatch the winning of many Democratic progressives away from Woodrow Wilson

ELECTORAL VOTES

Significance -Election is the “high water mark” of the progressive movement All candidates were progressive (to some degree) all candidates did not question whether or not society needed reform, but more of how to reform. -New Nationalism vs. New Freedom Winner: Woodrow Wilson Wilson Roosevelt Taft Debs
