Vermont, 1896

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Any reason why McKinley did so well here?  He broke 80%; was it because of Bryan?

On a somewhat related note, why did Bryan fare so poorly in the Deep South?

He did pretty well, actually; 85% in SC, 67% in AL, and 91% in MS; he only did poorly in GA, where he only hit 57%.

67% in Alabama was a terrible showing, no?

EDIT: Never mind. Forgot the Appalachian factor.

Actually, it tied 1888 with the strongest performance by a Democrat in the state's history; Georgia was where he did fairly poorly.

Scared the horses, didn't he.
