Main article: 1896 United States presidential election
The 1896 United States presidential election in Texas took place on November 3, 1896. All contemporary 45 states were part of the 1896 United States presidential election. State voters chose 15 electors to the Electoral College, which selected the president and vice president.
Texas was won by the Democratic nominees, former U.S. Representative William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska and his running mate Arthur Sewall of Maine. Four electors cast their vice presidential ballots for Thomas E. Watson.
