James A. Garfield's presidential record
James A. Garfield appears in the American presidential record once, as a candidate in 1880. That single campaign ended in victory. Each campaign ran under the Republican banner.
The high-water mark came in 1880: a 214-electoral-vote win over Winfield Scott Hancock. Those campaigns fall within the Gilded Age era.
