Nebraska was won by the Democratic nominee, former Governor Franklin D.

Additionally, the Dust Bowl, which was a series of droughts and dust storms that hit Nebraska especially hard, decimated the already struggling agriculture-reliant economy of the state. In contrast, Roosevelt conducted an energetic campaign that appealed to farmers, suburbanites, and urbanites alike. He promised to implement a series of government funded relief programs, collectively known as The New Deal, that would provide economic relief through programs such as the Civilian Conservation Corps, which gave jobs to unemployed Americans by conducting projects such as building national parks and dams. As the Hoover campaign didn't appear to have any substantive policies to ease the economic burden, Nebraskans came out in large numbers to support Roosevelt, winning the state by a decisive 27.1% margin, a complete reversal of 1928, when Hoover won the state by almost the same margin. Roosevelt carried 91 out of 93 of the state's counties, with Hoover only managing to win Keya Paha and Yankee-settled Lancaster, the former of which was decided by a margin of just 2%, or 32 votes (the latter was decided by a more comfortable 6.5%). With every county in the state trending Democratic, as of the 2024 presidential election, this election marks the best ever Democratic presidential performance in Nebraska and the only time in history the state has given more than 60% of its vote to a Democrat in a presidential election.https://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/compare.php?year=1932&fips=31&f=0&off=0&elect=0&type=state Dave Leip’s U.S. Election Atlas Presidential General Election Results Comparison – Nebraska 1932 constitutes the last occasion that Antelope, Arthur, Brown, Furnas, Garden, Garfield, Hamilton, Hooker, Loup, McPherson, Otoe, Rock, Valley, or York counties have voted for a Democratic presidential candidate.Sullivan, Robert David; ‘How the Red and Blue Map Evolved Over the Past Century’; America Magazine in The National Catholic Review; June 29, 2016Menendez, Albert J.; The Geography of Presidential Elections in the United States, 1868-2004, pp. 252-255 0786422173 This was also the last time that Nebraska voted more Democratic than the nation overall.
