Question

Which had the greatest impact on Franklin Roosevelt's victory in the 1932 presidential race?

Answer 1

The correct answer is C.

The landslide victory of President Franklin D. Roosevelt in the 1932 presidential election over Herbert Hoover was due to Hoover's inability to solve the economic problems of the Great Depression.

Hoover was a huge advocate of laissez faire economics. This meant that the government should get involved with the economy as little as possible. This is why Hoover does not introduce many new pieces of legislation that tackled problems like unemployment or poverty.

FDR, on the other hand, develops the New Deal concept. These government programs would focus directly on providing financial assistance to citizens along with establishing programs that address problems like the stock market and affordable health care.
