, this is the last and only time Sanilac County voted for a Democratic presidential candidate.[1] It would also be the last time until 1964 that Allegan County, Hillsdale County and Lapeer County would support a Democratic presidential candidate.[1] This was also the last time Michigan sent a full slate of Democratic electors to the Electoral College until Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1932, although it did send five Grover Cleveland electors in 1892.[2]
