Did Cartooning Decide the Election?

The effect of anti-Blaine cartoons have been cited as a reason Blaine lost in 1884, but it is hardly the sole explanation cited by scholars:

– Delmonico dinner

– Mulligan Letters

– Rev. Burchard speech

– Third-party run of Butler

– N.Y. rain on election day

– New York newspaper opposition

– Mugwumps

– GOP factionalism

– Overemphasis on tariff

– Too much campaigning in Midwest
