The1924 United States presidential election in Texas took place on November 4, 1924, as part of the1924 United States presidential election. State voters chose 20 representatives, or electors, to theElectoral College, who voted forpresident andvice president.
Ever since statehood,Texas had been very nearly the strongest state for theDemocratic Party owing to its initial history being as aDeep South state based aroundslavery. Even during Reconstruction when African-Americans were briefly enfranchised, theRepublican Party won just one statewide election, and afterRedemption and the passing of a new constitution in 1876 the GOP became confined largely to areas of abolitionist German refugee settlement inthe Hill Country,[1] and to a few South Texas counties where local Republican bosses could until 1920 outcompete their Democratic equivalents.[2] TheTerrell Election Law created a poll tax that, from 1902, disenfranchised virtually all remaining African-American voters, the vast majority ofMexican Americans, and also most poor whites.[3] Voter turnout among males over twenty-one fell from over eighty percent to under thirty percent following the poll tax.[4]
The period following this disfranchisement nonetheless saw a considerable amount of typically "Progressive" reform underGovernorsJames Stephen Hogg andThomas M. Campbell, and despite this progressive faction ceding power in 1906 to the conservatives, Texas proved solid in its support for progressive candidateWoodrow Wilson at the1912 Democratic National Convention.[5] Another populist, James Ferguson, took the governorship in 1914 on an anti-Prohibition platform, but was impeached for misappropriation of public funds.[6]
1916 had seen DemocratWoodrow Wilson establish firmer control over the machine-dominated areas of South Texas, but hostility towards Wilson's peace promises caused some losses amongst the German population.[7] Later Wilson became hated by German and Irish Americans for his entry into the war, his role in drafting theTreaty of Versailles and supporting many anti-German groups during the "Red Scare".[8] HisLeague of Nations proposal was also opposed in the South where isolationism had long been very powerful,[9] but the reaction was much less pronounced than inAcadiana or theOzarks.[9]
At the beginning of the campaign, the victory in the tantamount-to-election Democratic primary for Governor ofMiriam A. Ferguson in opposition to the powerfulKu Klux Klan produced substantial doubt about whether Democratic nomineeJohn W. Davis ofWest Virginia would maintain evenJames M. Cox’s reduced vote share from1920,[10] with suggestions some of her supporters would back incumbent Republican presidentCalvin Coolidge orProgressive nomineeRobert M. La Follette.

Texas had been a Democratic stronghold since it first became a state in 1845, and the first poll taken in early October had Davis winning 56 percent of the vote to 34 percent for Coolidge and 10 percent for La Follette, which constituted a slight decrease on Cox's already reduced majority four years previously.[14] As it turned out, however, the conservativeSouthern Democrat Davis restored pre-existing Democratic hegemony in most of Texas, improving upon Cox's 1920 vote by fourteen percent and even exceedingWoodrow Wilson’s 1916 performance, whilst Coolidge fell four percent below whatWarren G. Harding managed. Although La Follette would carry his home state of Wisconsin and relegate Davis to third in eleven other states, amongst Texas’poll-tax-restricted electorate his appeal was almost entirely restricted toGerman Texans who were more culturally allied tothe Midwest than to the South. Texas would be La Follette's sixteenth-weakest state nationally, but overwhelmingly GermanGillespie andComal Counties would be the only counties in Southernantebellum slave states to be won by La Follette. In fact, in Comal County La Follette received 73.96 percent of the vote, his highest proportion in any county nationwide.[15]
