Debs received 913,664 popular votes (3.4 percent), despite the fact that he was in prison at the time for advocating non-compliance with the draft during World War I . This was the largest number of popular votes ever received by a Socialist Party candidate in the United States, although not the largest percentage of the popular vote . Debs received double this percentage in the election of 1912 . The 1920 election was Debs' fifth and last attempt to become president . </P> <P> Parley P. Christensen of the Farmer - Labor Party took 265,411 votes (1.0%), while Prohibition Party candidate Aaron S. Watkins came in fifth with 189,339 votes (0.7%), the poorest showing for the Prohibition party since 1884 . Since the Eighteenth Amendment, which initiated the period of Prohibition in the United States, had passed the previous year, this single - issue party seemed less relevant . </P>

Who garnered a million votes during the 1920 election despite being in prison
