Election thrown to House, Taft elected.
Given what we know about the outcomes today, there is no way on earth Wisconsin would vote for Wilson. Due to his policies, the Dems only managed 16% here in 1920. The second chance for Wilson would not be kind up here in Dairyland.
Out of curiosity, why would the progressive bastion of Wisconsin at the time prefer a staunch conservative over a more "progressive" Democrat?
WWI made Wilson about as popular as the Spanish flu. You couldn't find a more personally reviled American politician in Wisconsin than Woodrow Wilson. Progressive, stalwart, it really wouldn't have mattered much as long as it wasn't Wilson.
