The 1912 Democratic presidential primaries were the selection process by which voters of the Democratic Party chose its nominee for President of the United States in the 1912 U.S. presidential election. New Jersey Governor Woodrow Wilson was selected as the nominee through a series of primary elections and caucuses culminating in the 1912 Democratic National Convention held from June 25 to July 2, 1912, in Baltimore, Maryland.
Campaign
The race was primarily a contest between Woodrow Wilson and Champ Clark. John Burke and Judson Harmon also ran, but they were favorite sons with little appeal outside of their home states.
