Answer 1

Answer:

In the presidential election of 1936, the so-called New Deal coalition reelected FDR in a landslide.

Explanation:

The so-called New Deal Coalition was a coalition of voters that supported American President Roosevelt's New Deal programs and kept the Democrats in the power for many years. This temporary coalition encompassed a number of diverse members from US society: from small farmers, Catholics, Protestants, Jews, African Americans, liberals, radicals, intellectuals, blue-collar workers, Southerners to labor union members; and in the 1936 Presidential election, it re-elected Franklin D. Roosevelt, giving him 98.49% of the electoral votes.
