History

Historical Context

In the 1992 presidential race, Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton leveraged his centrist Democratic Leadership Council platform to defeat incumbent George H. W. Bush, winning 370 electoral votes with 43% of the popular vote. The victory ended 12 years of Republican control, gave Democrats a congressional trifecta, and was aided by Ross Perot’s 18.9% third-party showing.
