The highest percentage of popular votes was Theodore Roosevelt's Bull-Moose Party which won 27.4 percent of the popular vote in the 1912 Presidential election, and carried six states. This was the best showing of an independent party in history, and the only time such a party has carried more than one-third of the popular vote. .
