How was the fall of Populism caused by the Democratic Party and what impact did it have on the Democratic Party? This question is significant because it helps to explain why the Democratic Party remained dominant in Texas and the timing of voter restriction in Texas. I plan to answer this question using the primary sources of election results, published party platforms, voter turnout, and letters written by populists to newspapers in the time period.

The support from different socio-economic groups was split between the candidates, and multiple variables affected the voters’ opinions. The candidates’ backgrounds, views and opinions on different political issues, and the voters themselves all proved important factors in the election.

Throughout history it was obvious that the key to a good presidential campaign was a good slogan. Each election year something new and unseen came up about the candidates that made them increasingly entertaining, and occasionally impactful.
