Wilson Nominated by Acclamation at Democratic Convention

New Jersey Governor Woodrow Wilson secured the Democratic nomination for President by acclamation after a week of ballots at the convention hall. The final forty-sixth ballot showed Clark 0, Harmon 0, Wilson 990, with party factions shifting as Senator Bankhead withdrew Underwood, Missouri pledged to Wilson, and Massachusetts changed to Wilson. The crowd erupted as Wilson’s nomination was declared, ending a tense contest between Wilson and Underwood and marking a historic Democratic gathering.

Most remarkable night at the Democratic convention

A feverish Baltimore Democratic convention night saw Bryan rail against Morgan Delmont and Ryan, prompting dramatic confrontations. Clark and Wilson nominations triggered hour upon hour of parades and cheers, while Bryan finally declared for Wilson as New York pressed Clark.
