Democrats Nominate Cox and Roosevelt for President and Vice President
The Democratic convention nominated Governor James M. Cox of Ohio for president on the forty-fourth ballot and Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York for vice president by acclamation. Cox’s faction is strong, with a powerful campaign presence, while Roosevelt brings vigor and experience. The ticket faces opposition from Harding and Bryan supporters, and the race could hinge on Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Montana in the coming contest.
