Presidential Electons: 1912 Wilson v. Roosevelt v. Taft: Overview

Curated by ACT

The presidential elections in the late 19th and early 20th centuries were filled with drama from third parties, to a once defeated president running again and being elected, to a former president changing parties and running again. The election of 1912 continued this surprising trend. Read an overview of William Howard Taft's record as president. Find out how the presidential nominations turned out and how each candidate ran his campaign. A great resource.
