Elections in Wyoming |

The 1932 United States presidential election in Wyoming took place on November 8, 1932, as part of the 1932 United States presidential election. State voters chose three representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.
Wyoming was won by the Democratic nominee, the 44th Governor of New York, Franklin D. Roosevelt, running with John Nance Garner, the 39th Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, with 56.07 percent of the popular vote, against the incumbent Republican President Herbert Hoover and Vice President Charles Curtis, with 40.82 percent of the popular vote, a 15.3% margin of victory. [1] As of the 2020 presidential election [update] , this is the last election in which Johnson County and Crook County have voted for a Democratic presidential candidate, despite the fact that Roosevelt would win statewide by a larger margin 4 years later, in 1936. [2]
Despite the fact that Hoover had easily carried Wyoming by over 28 points in 1928, Roosevelt easily flipped the state, although his 15.3% margin of victory was slightly less than his national popular vote margin of 17.8%; thus Wyoming voted 2.5% to the right of the nation in this election. Roosevelt flipped 21 counties Hoover won in 1928, being Albany, Campbell, Carbon, Converse, Crook, Fremont, Goshen, Hot Springs, Johnson, Laramie, Lincoln, Natrona, Niobrara, Park, Platte, Sheridan, Sublette, Teton, Uinta, Washakie, and Weston. Whereas in 1928 Hoover won all 23 of Wyoming's counties with the exception of the heavily unionized Sweetwater, this election would see the reverse, with Roosevelt carrying every county except for Big Horn, which he narrowly lost by 3.9%. Whereas Al Smith only carried Sweetwater by 8%, Roosevelt tripled his victory to a landslide margin of 37%, a leftward swing of 29%. Hoover's performance in the county was the worst for a Republican up until that time, while his statewide vote total was the worst for a Republican since 1912, although due to a strong third party performance by Theodore Roosevelt, a distant cousin of Franklin, Republican William Taft only lost by 2%.
