You probably know that Franklin Roosevelt was first elected governor of New York in 1928 to fill the open seat (Al Smith retired to run for president). What I recently learned was how close that election was; he only beat his Republican opponent, Albert Ottinger, by .6%, or 24,000 votes. If Ottinger had won, who would be the Democratic nominee (and effectively the president-elect) in 1932?
