United States presidential election, 1952
From Conservapedia
(Redirected from United States presidential election of 1952)
President Truman had decided not to run for the Presidency again. General Eisenhower was popular as a candidate for which the Republicans were desperate. He got nominated easily on the Republican party ticket [1], while Adlai Stevenson won the Democratic nomination. The Republicans who had not won a presidential election since 1928 decisively won the 1952 election. [2]
