What happened in New Hampshire, 1932

In 1932, New Hampshire awarded its 4 electoral votes to Roosevelt of the Democratic party. That placed New Hampshire with the eventual winner: Franklin D. Roosevelt went on to take the presidency, and New Hampshire was part of his column.

The result flipped New Hampshire away from the Republican ticket it had backed in each of the previous 4 cycles. The region divided — Massachusetts and Maine joined New Hampshire for the Democratic ticket, while Vermont did not. Over its 59 recorded presidential cycles, New Hampshire has backed the Republican party more than any other — 28 times in all. The vote fell within the New Deal Coalition — FDR, civil rights, and the long Democratic majority.

Nationally, Franklin D. Roosevelt finished with 472 of the 531 electoral votes to Herbert Hoover's 59. Franklin D. Roosevelt led the national popular vote with 57.41% of the ballots cast.
