Yes, the election of Herbert Hoover in 1928 was seen as a blow to the interests of progressives. Hoover was a Republican and his presidency was characterized by a more conservative approach to government intervention and regulation. This was a departure from the progressive policies of his predecessor, President Calvin Coolidge, and dampened the hopes of progressives for continued social and economic reforms.
President Herbert Hoover -FaT BuNniE
Actually, Roosevelt's policies were similar to Hoover's but more extreme, and even people from Roosevelt's administration later admitted that they developed some of their ideas from Hoover. Both presidents favored government intervention into the economy and it did not end the depression. Hoover's policies turned a recession into a depression, and Roosevelt's policies turned a short depression into a decade long debacle. The depression did not end until Roosevelt took the US into World War II, when virtually the whole country was in a wartime economy. It is a common misconception that Hoover favored "free-market" policies. His Republican predecessors, Warren Harding and Calvin Coolidge did favor free market policies, and the result was the "roaring 20's" which was a period of economic prosperity. So to answer the question, Roosevelt's policies did not so much break from Hoover's, they only expanded upon them and kept the depression going.
Herbert Hoover was president from 1928 to 1932 and is generally blamed for the Depression, but the economic and social problems that led to the collapse of the stock market in October 1929 were fermenting during the presidencies of Harding and Coolidge. Generally speaking, Hoover was unfairly blamed for the depression.

Georgia was affected by Herbert Hoover because he created the New Deal Program.

Roosevelt created the New deal plan which included the Civilian Conservation Corps, the Social Security administration, the Agricultural Adjustment Act, and the Rural Electrification Act.
