Iowa was won by Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt (D–New York), running with Speaker John Nance Garner, with 57.69% of the popular vote, against incumbent President Herbert Hoover (R–California), running with Vice President Charles Curtis, with 39.98% of the popular vote.[3][4] This is the only occasion since the Civil War when Cass County and Page County have voted for a Democratic presidential candidate.[5][6]
As a result of his win, Roosevelt became the first Democratic presidential candidate since Woodrow Wilson in 1912 to win Iowa and the first since Franklin Pierce in 1852 to win the state with a majority of the popular vote (Wilson had won only a plurality in the state).
