The election of 1912 was between Woodrow Wilson, Teddy Roosevelt, and William Howard Taft. All three of these individuals were progressives, even though Wilson technically in the Democratic party and Taft was part of the Republican party. This was a time period in which progressive ideas were extremely popular in all major political parties. Due to this fact, the progressive voters were torn on which candidate to pick. Ultimately, Wilson ends up winning the election of 1912.
