The 25th episode in a very long series about the American presidential elections from 1788 to the present. In 1884, it's still just all about the facial hair, but the mustache gains momentum.

The 25th Presidential election in American history took place on November 4, 1884. Chester Arthur had become President after the assassination of James Garfield. His health had been declining, and he honestly didn’t know if he would make it another term if he ran for re-election. Still, a lot of people wanted him to run, so he gave it try. James Blaine, the former Speaker of the House and Senator from Maine, was the favorite for the Republican nomination, but George Edmunds, a Senator from Vermont, also had a good chance to win it. Two notable people that many wanted to run were Civil War general William Tecumseh Sherman and Abraham Lincoln’s son, Robert Todd Lincoln, who at this time was the Secretary of War. Both Sherman and Lincoln strongly DID NOT want to run for President, no matter how much people tried to talk them into it.
Ultimately, the Republicans went with a name that many already recognized throughout the country- James Blaine. He was nominated, with John Logan, a Senator from Illinois, as his running mate.
The Democratic Party chose Grover Cleveland, the Governor of New York, who was known as a man of integrity who spent much of his career fighting political corruption, so I don’t know why the heck they nominated him. The Democratic Party went with a familiar face for Cleveland’s running mate. Thomas Hendricks, the former Governor of Indiana who ran for Vice President on the ticket with Samuel Tilden back in 1876. Remember that one? He won, I mean, lost that one, but was back for another try, this time with a different classical liberal.
There were several third parties. The Greenback Party was back for a third try, hoping to gain even more momentum. They nominated Benjamin Butler, the former Governor of Massachusetts, with Absolom West, a plantation owner and former Confederate general from Mississippi, as his running mate.
Another political party that was continuing to pick up momentum and continuing to hate alcohol was the Prohibition Party. This time they nominated John St. John (that’s his actual name and that’s his actual mustache), a former governor of Kansas, with William Daniel as his running mate, a lawyer and politician (go figure!) from Maryland.
The second notable woman to run for President, Belva Ann Lockwood, ran with the Equal Rights Party. The former teacher and principal was the first female to actually appear on official ballots, so that’s pretty cool. Yep, she still didn’t stand a chance. Activist Marietta Stow was her running mate.
The two top candidates were personally attacked leading up to the election. Blaine, for being accused of using his influence for special favors, and Cleveland, for allegedly fathering an illegitimate child.

    The rumor about Cleveland's illegitimate child was true. He admitted he'd had an affair with Maria Halpin and made it known that he'd been doing the right thing by paying child support for the past ten years, which convinced many voters that it was none of their business and not really a scandal at all. In the end it actually _helped_ his image as a decent, honest guy.

    Had Chester A Arthur been renominated and re-elected we would've had a scenario where two presidents in a row die in office. Also, Robert Todd Lincoln considered being the running mate only if Arthur was chosen because of his loyalty to the man(he was the only one of Garfield's cabinet to stay for all of Arthur's). Meaning a second Arthur term may have led to another father-son presidency with the Lincoln name

About this election I'd like to ask you of a situation: As happened with Ralph Nader in the 2000 election, John St. John was also blamed of spoiling the election, in New York he received like 25000 votes. Do you think that that was actually possible? Would you consider St. John as a spoiler? Thanks :)

    Pretty embarrassing for Blaine & the republicans for which this one broke their 6 winning election streak. We wouldn’t see another Democrat in office till Woodrow Wilson, if you exclude Cleveland’s 2nd term.

    Cleveland knocked up a woman before entering office. And then he married his much younger hot baby mama while in office. Grover Cleveland was a player. Hats off to him.

    4:00 - this was before the parties switched, as well, right? So sadly it was still a modern republican set of years.

    About 9 more months until we know if Donald Trump becomes the new Grover Cleveland. Considering the current climate and how Trump will cry if he loses(or goes to jail, however unlikely) maybe the next election will be the second one to lead to... you know? Interesting times we live in, again.

    If Cleveland lost that would have meant that between 1861-1912 the USA would have been governed by the Same Party. Imagine that 13 consecutive Victories for the republicans😂.
