True, FDR was unpopular with Tammany, however, I believe Cox was looking to expand upstate, at the time, reformist, anti-Tammany and a Roosevelt stronghold. The League was the big issue and the one who really lost the election of 1920 was Woodrow Wilson by pressing Cox and Roosevelt to defend the League.
