Abstract
Republicans blame the Democrats for the Depression as they approach the election of 1896 with William McKinley as their presidential candidate. The Democrats, split by the Populist movement, nominate William Jennings Bryan as their standard bearer and include some Populist ideas in their platform. In a controversial vote the Populists also back Bryan. McKinley, backed by business wins by a large majority in what is considered a realigning election. The Republicans now become the majority party.
