Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Map 20.1 shows that most of the southern states, including the former Confederate states, voted for the Democratic candidate, Grover Cleveland. The People's Party, also known as the Populist Party, did have some support in western and midwestern states, but did not win a majority of the popular vote or any electoral college votes. The Republican candidate, Benjamin Harrison, won some states in the Midwest and Northeast, but did not do as well as Cleveland in the South. Therefore, option B is the correct choice.
