The 1936 United States presidential election in Nevada took place on November 3, 1936, as part of the 1936 United States presidential election. State voters chose three[2] representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.
Nevada was won by incumbent President Franklin D. Roosevelt (D–New York), running with Vice President John Nance Garner, with 72.81% of the popular vote, against Governor Alf Landon (R–Kansas), running with Frank Knox, with 27.19% of the popular vote.[3][4]
As of the 2020 presidential election[update], this is the last occasion Douglas County voted for a Democratic presidential candidate,[5] and the last time a Democratic nominee won every single county in the state. No subsequent presidential candidate has matched Roosevelt's 72.81% share of the popular vote in Nevada. This was the first time ever that a presidential candidate won two terms by carrying all counties in Nevada in both instances.
