Pennsylvania in 1924

The 1924 contest saw Pennsylvania line up behind Coolidge, delivering 38 electoral votes to the Republican ticket. That placed Pennsylvania with the eventual winner: Calvin Coolidge went on to take the presidency, and Pennsylvania was part of his column.

Pennsylvania stayed in the Republican column for the 3rd straight cycle, extending a run that began in 1916. Pennsylvania did not move alone — neighboring Ohio, West Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, and New York broke the same way in 1924. Over its 60 recorded presidential cycles, Pennsylvania has backed the Republican party more than any other — 26 times in all. The vote fell within the Roaring Twenties — Republican dominance to the Great Depression.

Nationally, Calvin Coolidge finished with 382 of the 531 electoral votes to John W. Davis's 136. Calvin Coolidge led the national popular vote with 54.04% of the ballots cast.
