Alabama was won by the Democratic nominees, former President Grover Cleveland of New York and his running mate Adlai Stevenson I of Illinois. However, Weaver performed well in the South as he won counties in Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, and Texas. Populists did best in Alabama, where electoral chicanery probably carried the day for the Democrats.[1]

gollark: I am not really a fan of somewhat evil text manipulation stuff to implement slightly nicer lambdas.
gollark: This is definitely... *a* way to implement something like those.
gollark: Well this is evil.

gollark: What are you *doing* which needs this?
