Hello 
"Warren G. Harding was able to win the 1920 presidential election by assuring Americans that he would return the country to "normalcy". People were not happy with the war in Europe and Wilson's plan to keep the US involved in European conflicts via a League of Nations. The Democratic candidate opposed prohibition which Harding supported and that stance no doubt won him some votes, especially from WCTU members who were voting for the first time in 1920."
