1944 United States presidential election in Indiana

The 1944 United States presidential election in Indiana took place on November 7, 1944, as part of the broader national election to select the President and Vice President of the United States. Indiana, a key battleground state, cast its electoral votes for the Democratic candidate, President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who was running for an unprecedented fourth term. Roosevelt's campaign focused on continuing the New Deal and wartime policies amid World War II. Opposition came from the Republican candidate, New York Governor Thomas E. Dewey, who advocated for a return to pre-war economic policies. Ultimately, Roosevelt won Indiana by a significant margin, securing its 12 electoral votes, reflecting the state's divided sentiments between the two major parties during this pivotal election.
