The United States presidential election of 1908 was held on November 3, 1908.

Despite his two previous defeats, Bryan remained extremely popular among the more liberal and populist elements of the Democratic Party. Despite running a vigorous campaign against the nation''s business elite, Bryan suffered the worst loss in his three presidential campaigns, and Taft won by a comfortable margin.
