Answer:
Thomas Dewey
Step-by-step explanation:
Harry Truman, in a speech in Boston, and Thomas Dewey, campaigning in Cleveland, both spoke of the Soviet Union's ambition to spread its influence in Europe and beyond. The newspapers reported on October 29, 1948 that "Truman and Dewey are in agreement to combat communist expansion."
The United States was scheduled to go to the polls four days later, on Tuesday, November 2, and a hotly contested presidential election was expected, with Dewey aiming to give the Republicans a victory that had eluded them since 1928. A decisive day, Truman, who had succeeded Franklin Roosevelt for his death in 1945, was eventually reelected president. And Dewey, whom the Chicago Daily Tribune came to claim as victor, lost again, as it had in 1944 against Roosevelt. The photo of Truman showing the newspaper that mistakenly attributed the victory to his rival was famous.
