1892 United States election

After being unseated by Benjamin Harrison in the 1888 election, Grover Cleveland is back for a rematch. Harrison’s high tariffs, voting rights proposals, and the gold standard dominate the discussion. James Weaver and the newly formed populist party have considerable support in the west.

Enjoy! Please remember DON'T put answer just because you want a curtain result, please be honest. I know the answers, results, and questions may be out of fashion for the present day where the political left rules with an Iron Fist, however it's time to break free.
