Answer:

The Bonus Army incident that took place in the summer of 1932 virtually assured Roosevelt's election. "Well, this will elect me." Roosevelt was correct; he buried Hoover in November, winning 22,809,638 votes to Hoover's 15,758,901 votes, and 472 to 59 electoral votes. In addition, the Democrats won commanding majorities in both houses of Congress.
