1924 United States Presidential Election | Yet Another Alternate Elections Series

Heads up, don't vote Hoover because you think Underwood is racist because he's a Democrat in the 1920s. He isn't

The time has come. After four years of a really mixed Presidency by Harding, it is time for the next election cycle.

But first, let's go over the candidates.

REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES:

Secretary of Commerce, Herbert Hoover

Hoover, a long opponent of the corrupt and ineffective Presidency of Harding, made a bid to replace him in 1924. To his own surprise, he won. He is running on a staunch anti-corruption, pro farmer, and pro worker platform. His main goal is to restore faith in Washington, and help the farmer and worker by creating farming and unemployment subsidies, albeit for striking workers only. Hoover was also nominated by the Farmer-Labor Party, which has gained more momentum following Harding's Presidency.

Vice President Calvin Coolidge

The incumbent Vice President has been renominated, much to the dismay of Hoover, who had hoped for his wing of the party's backed candidate, LaGuardia to be nominated. Calvin Coolidge is dedicated to Laissez-Faire Economics, and may even vote against some of Hoover's reforms.

DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES:

Senator Oscar Underwood

Underwood is quite the anomaly. You'd expect a Democrat from Alabama to be very racist, but he is quite the opposite. .A Progressive, Underwood will most likely put in place a lot of Hoover's planned reforms, but would prefer to focus on expanding Civil Rights, mainly taking down what he hated most: The KKK. Citing Grant as his main role model, Underwood plans to take down the KKK as swift as he can. Not only that, but he opposes federal Prohibiton

Governor Charles W. Bryan

Also a staunch Progressive, Bryan supports the reforms that are planned under a Underwood or Hoover administration. However, he is mostly focused on Farm subsidies. He also is the brother to the ever popular William Jennings Bryan, and will almost certainly do numbers out west.

1928 United States Presidential Election | Yet Another Alternate Elections Series

President Herbert Hoover of California

Vice President Calvin Coolidge of Massachusetts

The Republican Party was mostly united with its nomination. Hoover and Coolidge represent the two main wings of the Republican Party very well. Hoover is still disappointed with him not getting nominated by the Farmer-Laborers, and will have to compete out west to prevent Electoral Deadlock.

Policy wise, Hoover has promised to take a page out of OTL Coolidge's book: Sit back and enjoy the economic prosperity going on that will totally continue for the rest of the 20s and 30s, maybe pass a few reforms here and there.

Governor Al Smith of New York

Representative Cordell Hull of Tennessee

There are two wildly different complaints against Hoover in the Democratic Party: "He's gone to far," or "He hasn't gone far enough." Al Smith is the perfect middle ground. While not necessarily a Progressive, Smith is no Conservative. However, Smith will probably focus on taking the KKK down and lowering Tariffs. Smith is also an opponent to Prohibition, and some say he'll end it if elected.

Representative Norman Thomas of New York

Senator Magnus Johnson of Minnesota

A new major party, the Farmer-Labor Party, which had nominated Hoover in 1924, is disappointed with Hoover's reforms. They believe he hasn't gone far enough. Norman Thomas, a representative from New York and protΓ©gΓ© of Eugene Debs, challenged Hoover and won. Hopefully, those who still like Hoover will not be inclined to vote for him. Magnus Johnson, the senator from Minnesota, represents the middle ground between the more moderate Roosevelt Progressives and the more extreme Debs Socialists. The Farmer-Labor Party's best bet is disrupti

Xigem Technologies Announces DTC Eligibility in the United States

TL:DR: DTC approval for Xigem, a tech stock in the remote economy, got DTC approval. Another step to add OTCQB to CSE and FSE.

https://www.xigemtechnologies.com/xigem-technologies-announces-dtc-eligibility-allowing-for-electronic-settlement-of-trades-in-the-united-states/

Xigem Technologies CorporationΒ (CSE: XIGM) (OTCQB: XIGMF) (FSE: 2C1) shares are now eligible for electronic clearing and settlement in the United States through the DTC.

>DTC eligibility is expected to simplify the process of trading and enhance liquidity of Xigem's common shares in the United States. The Company's shares recently began trading on the OTCQB under the ticker symbol XIGMF.

DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, a U.S. company that manages the electronic clearing and settlement of publicly traded companies.

Xigem is positioned to become a leading technology provider for the emerging near trillion-dollar remote economy, with software capable of improving the capacity, productivity, and overall remote operations for businesses, consumers and other organizations. iAgent, the Company's patented technology, will provide organizations, businesses and consumers with the tools necessary to thrive in a vast array of remote working, learning and treatment environments while the Company looks to aggregate a portfolio of innovative technologies capable of disrupting traditional business models.

TLDR on the top. My position, DD, views on this stock and a thread on other Remote options are in my profile, you can check it out. With OTCQB $XIGM is on top of the list tho.

The 1928 United States Presidential Election: Results

"What...you're sure about that? We have a source on that? Well folks, we here can officially declare the state of Illinois...for Norman Thomas. Giving him the plurality of the Electoral Vote, and the popular vote."

"How'd this happen?"

"I don't know. All polls predicted a Hoover landslide. Thomas maybe getting like, Wyoming or Colorado."

"Either way, this election will move onto the House of Representatives....wait."

"The Farmer-Labor Party absolutely mopped the floor with the Democrats and Republicans in the midterms."

"Which means that - No."

"There's no way."

Norman Thomas: 31st President of the United States

A few notes. One, yes, I did in fact throw out those Hoover votes. Two, this election is pre 20th amendment, meaning the old congress elects the President. I will have an event that changes this, so in the case of a future Contingent Election, you all can vote for the House in a sort of run off election to decide the victor of the contingent election.

Thank you, I swear I'm not just a Thomas stan.
