1900
Reading the 1900 result in New Hampshire
New Hampshire backed McKinley (Republican) in the 1900 presidential election, casting 4 electoral votes for the ticket. New Hampshire ended up on the winning side — William McKinley captured the White House that year.
It marked the 4th consecutive election in which New Hampshire backed the Republican party, a streak reaching back to 1888. New Hampshire did not move alone — neighboring Vermont, Massachusetts, and Maine broke the same way in 1900. Across the 59 presidential elections New Hampshire has taken part in, it has most often sided with the Republican party (28 times). The vote fell within the Progressive Era — Trust-busting, suffrage, and World War I.
In the national count, William McKinley took 292 of the 447 electoral votes, against William Jennings Bryan's 155. William McKinley led the national popular vote with 51.64% of the ballots cast.
