Roosevelt is the incumbent President of the United States, winning against Herbert Hoover in a landslide four years ago that brought many liberals and progressives to Congress with him. His tenure as President has seen landmark executive orders and legislation known as the New Deal, with the goals of recovery, relief, and reform.
Roosevelt is personally popular, as are many of his New Deal policies, and the signs are pointing to the economy (slowly) continuing its recovery. To win, Roosevelt must keep the coalition he brought four years ago back out to the polls, while keeping the country back on track for recovery. It's possible, of course, that he could win every state if he puts effort into it.

This isn’t too big of a shock, but it was always very possible for things to go wrong along the way. Landon has called to concede, and it seems Democrats will retain the large majorities they enjoy in Congress. You will now continue to pass New Deal legislation.
Hopefully, the economy can fully recover during your second term. If you can recover the economy, you can set the Democratic Party up for success for many years to come. Or perhaps, do something really crazy and unprecedented, like run for a third term. Only time will tell…….
\", \"electoral_loss_message\": \"Sorry! You have lost the 1936 election.
It’s a major shock to your supporters and the nation, but it seems Landon has pulled off quite the incredible upset. The Democratic Party is absolutely furious that you lost to the likes of Alf Landon, especially as a very popular President. Many in the party worry that another economic crisis will occur due to the new Republican President-elect. Rumor is that your running mate, John Garner, is looking to run in 1940, and it will be easier for him to make his case for the nomination, given your loss. In some good news, it appears Democrats will keep control of Congress. Perhaps you may try to run for Senate, although it’s more than likely you shall retire back to New York.
\", \"no_electoral_majority_message\": \"Wow! No candidate holds a majority of electoral votes!
This is quite interesting. It seems no candidate has achieved a majority in the Electoral College. This was quite unlikely, but you’re still in shock by the whole situation. This either happened because of southern states bolting towards segregationist candidates, or because of William Lemke winning the Dakotas. With some negotiation, you’ll be able to secure a second term, with some conditions from southern delegates. As the southern delegates are more conservative, your Presidency may take a bit of a turn to the right. However, you’re still immensely popular, and who knows? Maybe you can run in 1940, and perhaps win without the South?

Landon must find some way to put a hammer to the New Deal Coalition - either by hemorrhaging specific Republican planks, or perhaps trying to bring back the traditional coalition that saw the Republican banner fly from California to Connecticut, and everywhere but the south.

All the way back in July, when you were given the nomination, victory seemed all but impossible. You were a little known Governor going up against a very popular incumbent who was recovering the economy. Pollsters had you winning only Vermont, Maine and maybe New Hampshire. Whatever the hell you did to close the gap, it has clearly worked, and you’ve left a nation speechless. Your supporters are ecstatic, and have taken to the streets to celebrate. Franklin D. Roosevelt calls to concede, and the Democratic Party is baffled that they somehow lost the White House to some newcomer Governor from Kansas.
On the governing front, it seems that Democrats still have heavy control of both chambers, so you’ll be working with a divided government for at least the next two years, and likely more to come. Regardless, sit back and relax, knowing that you’ve pulled off the greatest upset in American History! Congratulations, President-Elect Landon, and best of luck, because you’re gonna sure as hell need it!
\", \"electoral_loss_message\": \"Sorry! You have lost the 1932 election.
Considering how unpopular the Republican Party is nationwide, this isn’t a huge surprise. Still, some Republicans felt that you could’ve closed the gap, but it appears you were no match for Roosevelt.
Roosevelt will continue to pass the New Deal programs, with national support. This is probably the end of your political career, depending on how big the margin between you and Roosevelt was. If the race was close, perhaps you could still influence the Republican Party. You could also always go back to run for Governor of Kansas.
\", \"no_electoral_majority_message\": \"Wow! No candidate holds a majority of electoral votes!
I assume you messed around with the code since there's an odd number of electors and you can’t split the Southern Electors in a Alf Landon playthrough.
Anyway, this is quite interesting. It seems no candidate has achieved a majority in the Electoral College. This was rather unlikely, but it’s still disappointing. Unfortunately, it seems Congress will instead choose to give Roosevelt a second term. This is disappointing, but it seems you may have a shot at winning in 1940 if you can keep your influence in the Party Machinery.
