On the left is the 1928 Presidential map, on the right is the 1928 Senatorial map



And here's a swing between these maps



Smith was a Wet Catholic, and Hay (the Democratic) candidate was a Dry Protestant.

Smith lost 56/44 in Missouri, Hay lost 52/48.

So this is an interesting show of the anti-Smith swing in 1928.
