The 1919 United Provinces General Election was the 35th General Election in American history. It took place one year after the Armistice with Germany was signed, ending American involvement in World War I.

While the war was a success, the aftermath was chaotic, coinciding with the Spanish Flu Pandemic and persecutions of suspected left-wing sympathizers by Home Secretary A. Mitchell Palmer. Leonard Wood, who essentially ran the war abroad along with Wilson, was the incumbent Republican leader after Hughes' resignation but decided to retire at the end of his term. This left the Republican Party fractured, unable to coalesce around a national leader. Some conservatives rallied around popular Governor of Illinois Frank O. Lowden under the "National Republican" label. Tory leader Henry Cabot Lodge won re-nomination by his party. Many Democrats and Republican candidates switched to the rapidly growing Progressive Party, which advocated New Nationalism, buttressed by a strong anti-immigration faction that gained significant support in the West. Many Coalition Progressives failed to receive re-nomination The Democratic Party was also badly divided, split between the pro-Wilson bloc and a more conservative faction led by John W. Davis.

The election was one of the most disruptive in history, auguring the collapse of the Third Party System. The election signaled a clear rejection of the status quo. Republicans kept a plurality of seats but lost critical support among Western voters and some Progressives. The Coalition Democrats lost badly, gaining fewer seats than the Conservatives, resulting in long negotiations that would reunite the party in late 1919. The Tories became the second largest party, and the Progressive Party received the second most votes and became the third largest party the in the House. Coalition Progressives lost nearly all seats, but those who remained largely rejoined the main party. Regional Party performance was mixed. The Texas Republican Party gaining seats for the first time in 20 years, while the California Liberal Party became unrepresented in the House for the first time in 16 years.

While the Republicans were the largest party, they were dysfunctional and unable to choose a leader favored by potential coalition partners. Wilson was able to gather enough coalition support to form a minority government with tacit support from the Progressives, but lost favor and was deposed within a year, replaced by Warren G. Harding until fresh elections took place in November 1921.

The 1921 United Provinces General Election was the 36th General Election in American History. It took place shortly after fresh elections were called by Prime Minister Warren G. Harding, who was ruling as a caretaker due to an inability to form a government. This was the first election in which all women over the age of 21 were granted suffrage. Additionally, 46 List seats were created via proportional representation through the Representation of the People Act 1920.

The election resulted in the the Tory gaining 47 seats, the most among all parties. Tory Leader Henry Cabot Lodge had become popular due to his leadership both domestically and internationally, as well as through being an opponent of Wilson, who was still unpopular at the time. The Progressive Party was plagued by infighting and lost 32 seats. The Socialist Party of America won 10 seats, gaining 6 through the list. Lodge was able to form a coalition government with Republican allies, securing a comfortable majority with Charles Dawes signing on as Deputy Prime Minister. Dawes would assume leadership of the party soon after. Lodge and Dawes were sworn in by President Charles Evans Hughes on 25 November.

This election had the lowest turnout among eligible voters at 51.9%, largely due to low turnout among women.

The 1933 United Provinces General Election the 39th general election in American history. It took place in the midst of the Great Depression, a worldwide economic collapse that resulted in 25% unemployment (maximum estimate), deflation, and reduced wages, meaning widespread poverty.

President Hoover was seen as ineffective, as his policies in the previous 4 years were not enough to change the tide of the Depression. Franklin Delano Roosevelt emerged as Hoover's primary opponent and defeated him and the Republicans in a landslide, winning an outright majority of seats.

The 1936 United States Presidential Election was the 40th general election in American history. I
