THE NEW YORK TIMES. New York, November 4, 1936
* Franklin D. Roosevelt FDR wins election for President of the United States
* Famous title with photos
This 56 page newspaper has a two line banner headline on the front page: "ROOSEVELT SWEEPS THE NATION; HIS ELECTORAL VOTE EXCEEDS 500" with many subheads that include: "Poll Sets Record" "Roosevelt Electoral Vote of 519 Seen as a Minimum" and much more.
Two column photo of FDR also on the front page. Much more on the inside pages.
Other news of the day throughout. Lite browning with minor margin wear, otherwise good.
source: wikipedia: In the 1936 presidential election, Roosevelt campaigned on his New Deal programs against Kansas Governor Alf Landon, who accepted much of the New Deal but objected that it was hostile to business and involved too much waste. Roosevelt and Garner won 60.8% of the vote and carried every state except Maine and Vermont. The New Deal Democrats won even larger majorities in Congress. Roosevelt was backed by a coalition of voters which included traditional Democrats across the country, small farmers, the "Solid South", Catholics, big city machines, labor unions, northern African Americans, Jews, intellectuals and political liberals. This coalition, frequently referred to as the New Deal coalition, remained largely intact for the Democratic Party until the 1960s.
