The election nonetheless marked the beginning of West Virginia's transition to a strongly Democratic-leaning state during the 20th century. It voted Democratic in every election from 1932 through 1996 save the national Republican landslides of 1956, 1972, and 1984; it did not vote for a Republican in a close election until 2000 or for a losing Republican until 2008. Roosevelt was the first Democratic victor in Hancock County since James Buchanan in 1856, the first Democrat to win Monongalia County since Stephen A. Douglas in 1860, and the first Democratic victor in Brooke County since Horatio Seymour in 1868.Menendez Albert J.
