BOISE CITY — On Nov. 10, 1916, Boise's Evening Capital News reported that California had swung to the Democrats and made Woodrow Wilson's re-election sure, and said late returns showed Gov. Alexander re-elected by 600 to 1,000 votes. The same front page announced that young Democrats would celebrate that night with a parade from Twelfth and Main streets at 8 o'clock, led by the Boise Municipal band and the high school band, with delegations expected from Caldwell, Nampa, Meridian and Emmett.
