Coolidge decides he has the energy for another four years and runs in 1928. He is very popular and although Hoover runs against him easily wins the nomination. Al Smith is still the Democrat Nominee . Does Coolidge improve on Hoover's actual election results or is there some factor that allows Smith to gain some ground.

Agreed, 1928 was a year that no Democrat could have even made close. Coolidge couldn't stand Dawes and might replace him with Frank Lowden, somebody that in RT challenged Hoover for the nomination.

Probably not . Let's say that the lack of a sufficient Southern strategy by Coolidge gives Smith Texas, Viriginia, Tennesse and North Carolina.

The Result is now 398 for Coolidge and 133 for Smith. A small dent in the margin of victory but no way Smith makes this one close.
