Which of the following was a result of the election of 1912?

Question

A) The Progressive Party was formed
B) The election ended progressive reforms in America. - no response given.
C) The election resulted in a republican victory at the polls.
D) The election was a tie between Woodrow Wilson and Theodore Roosevelt

Answer 1

A) The Progressive Party was formed

The election of 1912 was significant because it brought the Progressive Party to the forefront, as Theodore Roosevelt ran as the candidate for this party after splitting from the Republican Party. The election did not end progressive reforms; it instead highlighted the divide within the Republican Party and brought issues of progressivism to national attention. Woodrow Wilson ultimately won the election, so C and D are also incorrect.
