Woodrow Wilson won the 1916 Presidential election only after a hard-fought campaign, even to the point of many newspapers proclaiming Hughes the winner early on the night of the election.
WI Charles Evans Hughes did indeed win the 1916 election? The election was charged with many issues, not in the least the fact that Europe was embroiled in WWI.
Would a Hughes presidency change much? Would he be an effective leader, etc.?
