The correct answer is: " organized labor electricity of rural areas"

Democrat Talmadge ruled as conservative of the south and vehemently attacked the nationalization of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and the New Deal. He opposed favorable policies for blacks (President Roosevelt did not introduce any civil rights measure), agricultural programs and humanitarian aid programs such as the Construction Progress Administration and the Civil Conservation Corps. Talmadge tried to form a regional coalition, organizing a national tour to prepare for a challenge to FDR in 1936. His 'Southern Committee to defend the Constitution' organized a convention in Macon, Georgia, in January 1936 that brought together fragments of the old P. long coalition.
