Notes
^ Although La Follette was nationally the nominee of the Progressive Party , he ran as an independent candidate without a party label in South Dakota.
Because La Follette finished ahead of Davis in South Dakota as a whole, all margins given are Coolidge minus La Follette unless stated in the total for the county in question.
^ In this county where Davis did run second ahead of La Follette, the margin given is Coolidge vote minus Davis vote.
