Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Democratic Party won most presidential elections from 1932 (when Franklin D. Roosevelt was first elected) through the election of 1964 (when Lyndon B. Johnson won in a landslide victory). This period is often referred to as the "New Deal era," and it was marked by significant government intervention in the economy and social programs aimed at addressing the devastating effects of the Great Depression. The turbulent 1960s, including the civil rights movement and the Vietnam War, created the environment for a major political realignment and the rise of the Republican Party. However, during the period specified in the question, the Democratic Party was dominant in presidential elections.
