1 nov 1892 - Election of 1892

Description:

Weaver gained 1 million + popular votes and 22 electoral votes but fell short a few in electoral majority; Populist electoral votes came from only six midwestern and western states, four of which (Kansas, Colorado, Idaho, and Nevada) fell completely into the Populist basket.; Populist leaders like Tom Watson campaigned in South for blacks vote but they were disillusioned enough by Lincoln’s party so didn’t respond; this caused Whites in the South to make sure blacks didn’t vote and suppressed whatever political pwr they had left
