∙ 12y agoGenerally people say that Al Smith from New York was the first Catholic to run for president. However, in the election of 1872 there was a Catholic man named Charles O'Conor who was nominated to run and placed on the ticket as a "Bourbon Democrat." So, while O'Conor was the first Catholic on the ticket, Al Smith was the first to run as a major party candidate.
