Democratic Party candidate Franklin D. Roosevelt won Wisconsin with 64% of the popular vote, winning the state's twelve electoral votes.[1]
With his win in Wisconsin, Roosevelt became the first Democratic presidential candidate since Woodrow Wilson in 1912 to carry the state and the first since Franklin Pierce in 1852 to win the state with a majority of the popular vote (Wilson's win in 1912 and Grover Cleveland's win in 1892 were only pluralities).
