The correct response is:

A new Democratic voting group emerged.

The 1932 presidential election is significant because it marked a realignment in American politics, with Franklin D. Roosevelt's election leading to the emergence of a new coalition of voters within the Democratic Party, including African Americans and labor unions, who had previously supported the Republican Party. This shift had long-lasting effects on American political dynamics.
