Primaries
Due to the limited amount of players at the time of the election, very little primaries were held.

Republican Primary
The Republican Primary for President was uneventful, with John Marlow being the only candidate to announce. He was essentially given the nomination.

Vice Presidential Primary
The nomination for Vice President was the only Republican Primary that took place during the election. The two candidates were August Guerrieri and the Governor of Alabama, Mr. Wyatt.

August Guerrieri won the election, becoming the first Republican Vice Presidential Nominee.

Green Primary
The Green Party Primary was contested, however the results and details from this primary are largely unknown.

Mikael Abbas emerged as the winner of the Primary and chose Isaak Popkin as his Running Mate.

Libertarian Primary
No Primary was held for the Libertarian Nomination. Instead, the Chairman of Party, Albrecht Randolph, received the nomination due to him being the only candidate.

Randolph selected Andrew Mandile of Maryland to be his Running Mate.

Fascist Primary
There was no primary for the Fascist Party's presidential nomination. Being the only Candidate, Francisco Franco received the nomination.

Franco did choose a running mate, but little is known about him.
