Assassination Trivia

[Steve]

David Davis was a candidate in the Liberal Republican party convention for President. The Republican party split into 2 parties during the 1872 Presidential election. The Democrats decided to endorse the eventual Liberal Republican party candidate, Horace Greely, in exchange for patronage jobs and didn't officially field a candidate for president during that election. Davis wasn't a candidate at the 1872 Democratic convention, which is why I missed him before.
