The election of 1912 significant because of the Republican Party's division, the Democrats were able to win the presidency.
Elections for the US House of Representatives were held in 1912, the same year that Woodrow Wilson was chosen as president. The opposition Republican Party's divide into conservative and progressive wings contributed to Wilson's triumph. In the wake of the disastrously divided Republicans in the 1912 election, Roosevelt formed his own Progressive Party.

The political repercussions of these incidents tore the Republican Party apart and caused Roosevelt to lose his old ally.
