Election in Illinois
The 1892 United States presidential election in Illinois took place on November 8, 1892. All contemporary 44 states were part of the
1892 United States presidential election. State voters chose 24 electors to the
Electoral College, which selected the
president and
vice president.
Illinois was won by the
Democratic nominees,
former President
Grover Cleveland of
New York and his running mate
Adlai Stevenson I of Illinois. This marked the first time a Democratic candidate won Illinois since
1856 when
James Buchanan carried the state. This makes Illinois one of three states (along with
California and
Wisconsin) that Cleveland lost in his first two electoral bids but won in his third.
