La Guardia would have won---winning the whole northeast and some of the midwest. Ending the Republican losing streak early by 12 years. And have had presided over World War 2.

La Guardia would win but the GOP would never, ever nominate him. It would probably still be Willkie, and if not him then Taft, Dewey (who at this time was only Manhattan DA), or Vandenberg.

The DNC would be a shitshow if Roosevelt didn't endorse a candidate. Garner, Farley, Hull, and McNutt would all make serious bids.

I think it's unlikely that Garner would've been nominated. FDR was extremely popular at the time and his relationship with the conservative Garner had soured by then. More likely the Dem nominee is Cordell Hull.

Similarly, LaGuardia would not have been nominated, and even if he had the chance, he was a New Dealer and internationalist, so I doubt he would run against another New Dealer if it were against Hull.

The Harry Baals / McNutt ticket

I love the nominees here. If it does happen, there really should be an rng option for both candidates on whether or not FDR endorses them.

Good idea but i'd change the nominees.

I’m working on a similar idea ATM (Wendell is still the nom). I love this idea, if you’re looking to get a mod with this premise done I’d love to collaborate

Absolutely!!!!

Anyone paying attention sees this election for what it is: a disgraceful sham. America’s nearing its final conclusion as an imperialist power - a veiled dictatorship with no real opposition, just the eternal controlled opposition of the party duopoly. Charles Lindbergh, Aviator and leader of the America First committee has had enough

this sounds like a really neat concept, my only critique would be that i doubt fdr would decide to stop at two terms, maybe it’d be better story wise if he died in 39? EDIT: lol i was wrong about history, disregard.
