Garret A. Hobart, from New Jersey, was the vice president for most of McKinley's first term. He died in office and so had to be replaced on the ticket for the second term. Theodore Roosevelt, a hero for his exploits in Cuba, was his choice for his successful bid for re-election. When McKinley was assassinated on September 14, 1901, Theodore Roosevelt became the 26th US President.

William McKinley's running mate in the 1896 presidential election was Garret A. Hobart. However, Vice President Hobart died in office during McKinley's first term, so a new running mate had to be selected when President McKinley ran for reelection in 1900. The Republican Party chose Theodore Roosevelt, who became President when McKinley was assassinated in 1901.

William McKinley's Vice Presidents were Garret Hobart (1897-1899) none (1899-1901), and Theodore Roosevelt (1901)
