Elections in Oregon |
---|
The 1896 United States presidential election in Oregon took place on November 3, 1896. All 45 contemporary states participated in the 1896 United States presidential election. State voters chose four electors for the Electoral College, which was responsible for selecting the president and vice president.
Oregon was won by the Republican nominees, former Ohio Governor William McKinley and his running mate Garret Hobart of New Jersey, defeating the Democratic nominee William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska and his Populist running mate Thomas E. Watson of Georgia.
McKinley won the state by a narrow margin of 2.09%.
Bryan would later lose Oregon to McKinley again four years later and would lose the state for a third time against William Howard Taft in 1908.
