Vermont overwhelmingly voted for the Republican nominee, President William McKinley, over the Democratic nominee, former U.S. Representative and 1896 Democratic presidential nominee William Jennings Bryan. McKinley won Vermont by a landslide margin of 52.87% in this rematch of the 1896 presidential election.
