I'm broke and can't afford at the moment to buy the county data from before 1960. Does anyone know the presidential election results for the county from 1928 through 1956.

My guess is:
68 percent Hoover 1928 (very pro-prohibition county at the time)
74 percent Roosevelt 1932
71 percent Roosevelt 1936
63 percent Roosevelt 1940
67 percent Roosevelt 1944
59 percent Truman 1948
65 percent Eisenhower 1952
71 percent Eisenhower 1956

I found from another website that Eisenhower got 65 percent in 1956 and 62 percent in 1952. In 1948 Truman won with 50 percent and Thurmond got 10 percent. FDR got 74 percent in both 1944 and 1940. So I guess Obama's win in the county this year was the most a democrat has gotten since the end of WWII.
