The statement that best describes the impact of the election of 1912 is:

**The Democrats won the presidency due to the split in the Republican Party.**

This election was significant because Theodore Roosevelt ran as a third-party candidate for the Progressive Party after losing the Republican nomination to William Howard Taft, which divided the Republican vote and allowed Democrat Woodrow Wilson to win the presidency.
