1924: Davis defeats Coolidge

[Lahbas]

For one, Davis would never achieve that much of the popular vote, being a Conservative from the South who even denouced the Klan. Also, many people felt comfortable with the Republican Party while entering into a period of economic prosperity. While Coolidge did not personsally campaign, he had many other, more charismatic figures speak for him. The Progressive Party had already been established since 1922, and was popular among Liberal Democrats, which hurt Davis historically, and in this case would also take Liberal Republicans.

On another note, Coolidge's persona is often considered a plus, since it reminded people of the elder days, or something like that.

And you posted before I could respond......

I need an interesting POD to make a timeline.

Just like Cox defeating Harding in 1920 or Reagan in 1968 - all impossible.

I know. It is just the electoral map that is bothering me.
