Coolidge Dawes Named Ticket in Cleveland Convention
Calvin Coolidge was nominated to seek another term as President with Charles G. Dawes as Vice President after a calm, smooth convention in Cleveland. The process featured a late Dawes nomination after Lowden declined, with Butler steering toward Dawes and Hoover briefly in play. The event included notable speeches by Burton and Dr. Marion Burton praising Coolidge, and the convention polished by female participation and reform in delegate rules.
