The 1932 United States presidential election in Missouri took place on November 8, 1932, as part of the 1932 United States presidential election. Voters chose 15[2] representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.

Missouri was won by Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt (D–New York), running with Speaker John Nance Garner, with 63.39 percent of the popular vote, against incumbent President Herbert Hoover (R–California), running with Vice President Charles Curtis, with 35.08 percent of the popular vote.[3][4]

This is the last election in which Cedar County, Dade County, Miller County, and Wright County have voted for a Democratic presidential nominee, and the only election since the Civil War when Unionist Ozark Camden County, Christian County and Stone County did so.[5][6]
