Elected President

Woodrow Wilson
Democratic

Illinois was won by the Republican nominee Charles Evans Hughes with 52.56% of the popular vote. Hughes was the first presidential candidate to garner over a million votes in a single state, due to Illinois having allowed women to cast votes for electors, though not yet for other offices.

With 52.56% of the vote, Illinois would prove to be Hughes' fifth strongest state in terms of popular votes percentage after Vermont, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Iowa.[1]

This is the second of only three elections in the history of the party that a Democrat won the presidency without winning Illinois (the others being 1884 and 1976).[2] This was one of two elections in the 20th century where the state voted for the losing candidate, along with 1976.

In this election, Illinois voted 12.35% to the right of the nation at-large.[3]

This was the last time that Cook County voted for a Republican that lost nationally.

Primaries Edit

The general election coincided with the general election for House as well as those for state offices.[4]
