The 1952 United States presidential election in Idaho took place on November 4, 1952, as part of the 1952 United States presidential election. State voters chose four representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.[3]
Idaho was won by Columbia University President Dwight D. Eisenhower (R–New York), running with Senator Richard Nixon, with 65.42 percent of the popular vote, against Adlai Stevenson (D–Illinois), running with Senator John Sparkman, with 34.42 percent of the popular vote.
Eisenhower became the first Republican since Herbert Hoover in 1928 to win Idaho in a presidential election.
Eisenhower, born in Texas, considered a resident of New York, and headquartered at the time in Paris, finally decided to run for the Republican nomination
