Democrats Name Davis and Bryan Ticket After Prolonged Balloting
At the New York convention John W Davis of West Virginia was nominated for president and Charles W Bryan of Nebraska for vice president after a 14 day, 103 ballot deadlock influenced by McAdoo Smith and Bryan factions. The event featured dramatic anti Klans demonstrations, speeches by Walsh Roosevelt and Bryan, and a tense fight over league and Klan planks before Davis's acclamation.
