One thing I've noticed about the 1924 election map is the marked difference in results between Wisconsin and Michigan.  I realize that Wisconsin was LaFollette's home state, which explains why he managed to win it by a 17 point margin.  But just next door in Michigan, he was beaten into third place with a dismal 10.5%, while Coolidge won three quarters of the vote and made this his second best result in the nation; his best result anywhere in the Midwest by a long way.

Could anybody shed some light on this?
