Missouri was won by incumbent President, Woodrow Wilson (D–New Jersey), running with Vice President Thomas R. Marshall, with 50.59% of the popular vote, against Supreme Court Justice Charles Evans Hughes (R–New York), running with former vice president Charles W. Fairbanks, with 46.94% of the popular vote.[1] Had Hughes carried the state of Missouri, he would have had 272 electoral votes, enough to win the presidency.
This election was the first in which Missouri voted more Republican than Kansas since the latter's statehood. This would not recur until 2020.
