Voters chose ten representatives, or electors to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president. Kansas voted for the Republican nominee, former Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover of California, over the Democratic nominee, Governor Alfred E. Smith of New York. Hoover's running mate was Senate Majority Leader Charles Curtis of Kansas, while Smith ran with Senator Joseph Taylor Robinson of Arkansas. Hoover won the state by a margin of 44.96 points. Smith only carried Ellis County, which had (and still has) a large percentage of Roman Catholic residents. Smith was the first Roman Catholic to earn the nomination of a major party for president. With 72.02 percent of the popular vote, Kansas would prove to be Hoover's strongest state in the 1928 presidential election in terms of popular vote percentage.https://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/stats.php?year=1928&f=0&off=0&elect=0 1928 Presidential Election Statistics Dave Leip’s Atlas of U.S. Presidential Elections 2018-03-05 Results 1928 United States presidential election in Kansas1928 Presidential General Election Results – Kansas https://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/state.php?year=1928&fips=20&f=0&off=0&elect=0 U.S. Election Atlas 23 December 2013 Republican Party (United States) Herbert Hoover California Charles Curtis Kansas 513,672 72.02% 10 100.00% Democratic Party (United States) Al Smith New York Joseph Taylor Robinson Arkansas 193,003 27.06% 0 0.00% Socialist Party of America Norman Thomas New York James Hudson Maurer Pennsylvania 6,205 0.87% 0 0.00% Independent politician William Z.
