The 1900 United States presidential election in North Dakota took place on November 6, 1900. All contemporary 45 states were part of the 1900 United States presidential election . Voters chose three electors to the Electoral College , which selected the president and vice president .
North Dakota was won by the Republican nominees, incumbent President William McKinley of Ohio and his running mate Theodore Roosevelt of New York . They defeated the Democratic nominees, former U.S. Representative and 1896 Democratic presidential nominee William Jennings Bryan and his running mate, former Vice President Adlai Stevenson I . McKinley won the state by a margin of 26.59% in this rematch of the 1896 presidential election . The return of economic prosperity and recent victory in the Spanish–American War helped McKinley to score a decisive victory.
With 62.12% of the popular vote, North Dakota would be McKinley's second strongest victory in terms of percentage in the popular vote after Vermont .[1] McKinley had previously won the state four years earlier , but more than doubled his margin from 1896. Bryan would later lose North Dakota again to William Howard Taft in 1908 .
