All contemporary 44 states were part of the 1892 United States presidential election. Arkansas voters chose eight electors to the Electoral College, which selected the president and vice president. Arkansas was won by the Democratic nominees, former President Grover Cleveland of New York and his running mate Adlai Stevenson I of Illinois.

Weaver was not helped by his controversial decision to take a woman – Mary Lease – on his campaigns, as the South thought any political involvement degraded womanhood.Kauffman Gina More Than Petticoats: Remarkable Kansas Women January 24, 2012 36 Rowman & Littlefield 978-0762776337 Weaver did nonetheless win counties in Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, and Texas.
