Warren G. Harding – 139.9

Warren G. Harding was formally recognized as the president of the United States after winning the election on November 29, 1920. Historically significant, because it was the first time that women were allowed to vote for themselves in a presidential election. Harding was the one who declared the end of the First World War by announcing that the United States had reached a peace treaty with Austria, Germany, and Hungary and that the war had come to an end. He instituted a “return to normalcy” policy, which included efforts to improve the economy. His government was embroiled in a number of controversies, but the most serious issue was that Harding died of a heart attack while in office, which was not reported immediately after the event occurred.
