While William Borah, the Senator from Idaho with a very progressive reputation, probably never had a strong chance to win the GOP presidential nomination in 1936, due to the opposition of party bosses, he did do quite well during the primary season, such as it was back in the day. So, let's wave our hands and say Borah wins the Republican nomination. How does the general election go?
Just thought it'd be interesting to see a 1936 election with an explicitly progressive Republican.
