Sharpe Comments on Looming 1940 Presidential Contests
Sharpe argues that after the recent election the 1940 contest shapes up as a fight between Missouri conservative Democrats and conservative Republicans led by Dewey Taft or similar figures. He notes voters rejected a third term stance and rejects dictatorship, with the middle and eastern states aligning in a broad anti-New Deal motive, though Illinois diverged from the Midwest trend.
