Alabama was won by Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt (D–New York), running with Speaker John Nance Garner, with 84.74% of the popular vote, against incumbent President Herbert Hoover (R–California), running with Vice President Charles Curtis, with 14.13% of the popular vote.[3][4] This is also the only time in history that any presidential candidate has won every single county in the state, notably due to Roosevelt carrying reliably-Unionist Winston County by a margin of just a single vote.
