Incumbent Republican President George H. W. Bush, who had alienated a portion of conservatives by breaking his promise in 1988 for "No New Taxes" during his administration, defeated insurgent paleoconservative candidate Pat Buchanan.[1][2] However, his 15.6% margin of victory[3] was unusually narrow for an incumbent President, and foreshadowed his weaknesses amongst the conservative GOP base.[4]
Bush would go on to receive the Republican nomination, winning every state, but lost in the general election to Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton.
