Indeed! Although 29% is far from a majority, Benson did have some luck in OK, just as he did in our timeline where he won over 15.5%! States like Oklahoma, Arizona and Nevada were pretty major swing states in this period. For instance, if you look at how Debs performed in those states in 1912, he did rather well too.

When did thinking people leave the Deseret? ;-;

Hah! Well I'm not super well-versed in the Southwestern U.S., but I would imagine that demographic changes would play its part, as would a general, national leaning towards the right beginning in the 1920s and then much more so in the 50s. Republicans were (and still are) very skilled at picking up support from working class whites, especially when the Left became totally unraveled.
Luckily with this TL, that will soon change...

Right! I think I mentioned it in an earlier part. In order to better gauge voter tendencies of the top candidates they do not include the Socialists as an option in the polls. With the Chicago riots and the fear from the Red Scare in recent memory, the organization opted not to include Stedman.
Apologies, just wanted to see how everybody's favorite socialist was doing. I am excited to see Fitzgerald in action. I wonder if the Kennedys will make their political rise still.

Prime Minister Thälmann, though he had been personally opposed to the death penalty, nonetheless ordered the execution of NSDAP leader Adolf Hitler: an order which was carried out on January 31st, 1933.

This is, without question, the single best timeline I have read on the forum and probably the best alternate history I have read, period. Excellent work - I look forward to your future projects!
