The 1912 United States presidential election in Alabama took place on November 5, 1912, as part of the 1912 United States presidential election. Alabama voters chose twelve representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.
Over the preceding twenty years, Alabama had become effectively a one-party state ruled by the Democratic Party. Disenfranchisement of almost all African Americans and a large proportion of poor whites via poll taxes, literacy tests{{cite book|last=Perman|first=Michael|title=Struggle for Mastery: Disfranchisement in the South, 1888–1908|publisher=University of North Carolina Press|location=Chapel Hill, NC|year=2001|page=Introduction|isbn=9780807849095}} and extralegal violence{{cite book|last=Feldman|first=Glenn|title=The Disfranchisement Myth: Poor Whites and Suffrage Restriction in Alabama|date=2004 |page=157|publisher=University of Georgia Press |isbn=0820326151}} had essentially eliminated opposition parties outside of Unionist Winston County and a few other northern hill counties that had been Populist strongholds.{{cite journal|last=Webb|first=Samuel L.|title=From Independents to Populists to Progressive Republicans: The Case of Chilton County, Alabama, 1880-1920|journal=The Journal of Southern History|volume=59|issue=4|pages= 707–736|doi=10.2307/2210539 |jstor=2210539 }} The only competitive statewide elections became Democratic Party primaries limited by law to white voters.
Because the supporters of the Populist Party had previously been frequently lily-white Republicans,Feldman, The Disfranchisement Myth, p. 151 and Alabama had the most substantial white Republican support in the Deep South, Alabama's white Republicans would after the 1901 constitutional convention immediately make efforts to expel blacks from the state Republican Party.{{cite book|last1=Heersink|last2=Jenkins|first1=Boris|first2=Jeffery A.|title=Republican Party Politics and the American South, 1865-1968|pages=251–253|isbn=9781107158436|year=2020|publisher=Cambridge University Press }} For the 1904 Convention, President Theodore Roosevelt rejected this proposal, unlike in North Carolina where he acquiesced without opposition to the demands of Jeter Connelly Pritchard. During the rest of the decade, as conservative Democratic rule was consolidated throughout the state, the party did shift toward a more progressive policy,{{cite web|url=http://www.encyclopediaofalabama.org/face/Article.jsp?id=h-1529|title=Harris, "Braxton Bragg Comer (1901-11)"|publisher=Encyclopedia of Alabama}} although African-American convict labour was increased in the coalfields near Birmingham during strikes late in the decade.{{cite book|last=Kelly|first=Brian|title=Race, Class and Power in the Alabama Coalfields 1908-1921|location=Urbana|publisher=University of Illinois Free Press|year=2001|isbn=0252069331}}
In the election year of 1912, Oscar D. Street was appointed state Republican Party boss as part of the black-and-tan faction loyal to incumbent president William Howard Taft and Columbia University President Nicholas Murray Butler.{{cite book|first=Paul D.|last=Casdorph|title=Republicans, Negroes, and Progressives in the South, 1912-1916|publisher=The University of Alabama Press|year=1981|pages=70, 94–95|isbn=0817300481}} At the same time, Theodore Roosevelt and governor of California Hiram Johnson planned “lily-whitism” for the South with the “Bull Moose Party” after Roosevelt broke from the GOP.{{cite journal|last=Link|first=Arthur S.|title=The Negro as a Factor in the Campaign of 1912|journal=The Journal of Negro History|date=January 1947|volume=32|issue=1|pages=81–99|publisher=The University of Chicago Press|doi=10.2307/2715292 |jstor=2715292 }}
No polls were taken in the state during the election season, and despite Roosevelt's popularity even in the Solid South,{{cite journal|last=Link|first=Arthur S.|title=Theodore Roosevelt and the South in 1912|journal=The North Carolina Historical Review|date=July 1946|volume=23|issue=3|pages=313–324|publisher=North Carolina Office of Archives and History}} Democratic nominees former Princeton University President and governor of New Jersey Woodrow Wilson and governor of Indiana Thomas R. Marshall won Alabama easily with 69.94% of the popular vote, against the 26th president of the United States, with 19.24 percent to Roosevelt and 8.24 percent to Taft.{{cite web|publisher=Dave Leip’s U.S. Election Atlas|title=1912 Presidential Election Results – Alabama|url=https://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/state.php?year=1912&fips=1&f=0&off=0&elect=0}}
