Arthur Republican Party (United States) Grover Cleveland Democratic Party (United States) A presidential election was held in Indiana on November 4, 1884, as part of the 1884 United States presidential election. The Democratic ticket of the governor of New York Grover Cleveland and the former governor of Indiana Thomas A. Hendricks defeated the Republican ticket of the former U.S. secretary of state James G. Blaine and the senior U.S. senator from Illinois John A. Logan. Cleveland defeated Blaine in the national election with 219 electoral votes.Petersen 1963 52 General election Summary Indiana chose 15 electors in a statewide general election. Nineteenth-century presidential elections used a form of block voting that allowed voters to modify the electoral list nominated by a political party before submitting their ballots. Because voters elected each member of the Electoral College individually, electors nominated by the same party often received differing numbers of votes as a consequence of voter rolloff, split-ticket voting, or electoral fusion.Petersen 1963 vii–ix This table reflects the statewide popular vote as calculated by Walter Dean Burnham in his influential study, Presidential Ballots, 1836–1892. Svend Petersen's later Statistical History of the American Presidential Elections shows slightly smaller totals for all four candidates: 49 fewer votes for Cleveland, 31 fewer for Blaine, 104 fewer for Butler, and 33 fewer for St. John.Petersen 1963 52–53 1884 United States presidential election in IndianaBurnham 1955 249, 909 Democratic Party (United States) Grover ClevelandThomas A.
