Could Dave make maps of the 1912 Republican primaries?  I'd like to see them.

Do you have any idea how difficult it would be to obtain that information?

Jeeze, I don't even know how he gets all the info he has now!

I think TR won most of them

All but 3.

Primaries didn't mean much for TR since he never got the GOP nomination. However, he got the last laugh some would say. His newly formed Progressive Party ended up winning more states than the Republican candidate, Taft.

I would think that LaFollette would have supported a fellow Progressive (that fellow Progressive being TR).

Bur how can that be?  If Roosevelt won so many states in the primary, shouldn't he have been the nominee instead of Taft?

Back then, didn't the party bosses totally control the convention and the delegates?
