Harding to Eisenhower—A Handbook of American Presidential Election Statistics



937 pages | CQ Press
The first volume of America at the Polls covers elections from Warren G. Harding's landslide in 1920 through Dwight D. Eisenhower's second term. The front section contains national summary tables of the state-by-state and Electoral College vote for each election. A chapter for each state follows, beginning with a summary of the statewide vote and Electoral College, a county outline map, and the county-by-county details of each election. Sizable votes for third party candicates are also provided, as are summaries of presidential elections.
