Abstract

Massachusetts Drifts to Hoover
Powers, James H. | October 12, 1932 issue

add to cart   close window

Massachusetts which shared with "Little Rhody" the distinction of going Democratic in the Republican Presidential year of 1928, has apparently made up her mind to reverse the process by going Republican with politician Thomas Hoover in the Democratic year of 1932. This astonishing preference for being out in the cold, nationally speaking, is probably due, in part, to an ingrained dislike of "kneelin' with the rest." It is likewise certain that the numerous independent voters take no little delight in upsetting the party apple-carts nicely arranged for the electorate by the machine regulars.
