Harding Named for President in Prolonged Ballot Battle
At the Republican national convention in Chicago, Warren G. Harding of Ohio secured the presidential nomination on the tenth ballot as Pennsylvania’s 60 votes tipped the scale for him. Calvin Coolidge emerged as vice presidential nominee, while Frank O. Lowden faded after a long, shifting struggle among major factions and late-state switches. The balloting intensified through all-night negotiations, with multiple delegates switching to Harding and rubber-stamping his eventual 874 votes by the ninth ballot end.
