What is the exact date president Herbert Hoover elected?
Hello again, my friend. The election was held on November 6, 1928. Republican candidate Herbert Hoover won election by a wide margin on pledges to continue the economic boom of the Coolidge years. Smith won the electoral votes only of the traditionally Democratic Southern United States and two New England States. Hoover even triumphed in Smith’s home state of New York by a narrow margin. Pursuant to the Twentieth Amendment, the President’s term of office begins at noon on January 20 of the year FOLLOWING the election. This date, known as Inauguration Day, marks the beginning of the four-year terms of both the President and Vice President.
