Answer 1

The correct statement about the election of 1912 is:

The Republican Party did not nominate Roosevelt because he was too progressive.

In the 1912 election, Theodore Roosevelt, who had previously served as president, ran as a third-party candidate for the Progressive Party after failing to secure the Republican nomination against incumbent president William Howard Taft. Roosevelt's progressive platform was a key part of his campaign.
