1932 presidential election results. Red denotes states won by Hoover, blue denotes states won by Roosevelt. Numbers indicate the electoral votes won by each candidate.
In addition to Hoover's defeat, the Republicans also suffered crushing defeats in both congressional chambers: they lost 101 seats in the House of Representatives, with the Democrats expanding their House majority to a supermajority, and also lost twelve seats in the Senate, [3] with Democrats winning control of the chamber for the first time since 1918.[5] This would be the last time that an incumbent president lost re-election and his party lost control of both chambers of Congress in a single term until 2020.[6][7]
