The 1948 U.S. presidential election became one of the most surprising and significant in American history. While most polls and political commentators predicted a clear victory for Republican challenger Thomas E. Dewey, President Harry S. Truman stunned the nation with a dramatic come-from-behind win. This issue was released just days before Election Day and captures the final moments of campaigning, voter sentiment, and the political landscape in a postwar America defined by Cold War tensions, labor unrest, civil rights debates, and economic uncertainty.
