Analysis of Roosevelt Reelection Impact on 1946 Congress Control
The dispatch analyzes how Roosevelt's reelection interacts with congressional makeup. It notes that a landslide often aligns Congress with the president, while close races can produce split results. It discusses how soldier ballots may skew outcomes and that Republicans may gain Senate and House seats, especially outside New York City. It warns that ratifying a League of Nations treaty would require Republican support in a likely anti New Deal Congress. It forecasts investigations into New Deal agencies if Republicans win the House.
