[Independent-1] Although La Follette was nationally the nominee of the Progressive Party, he ran as an independent candidate without a party label in South Dakota.

[4] Because La Follette finished ahead of Davis in South Dakota as a whole, all margins given are Coolidge minus La Follette unless stated in the total for the county in question.

[DavisdFollette-6] In this county where Davis did run second ahead of La Follette, the margin given is Coolidge vote minus Davis vote.
