The contention lay in the <a href="/wiki/The_Democratic_vice_president_nomination_of_1944" class="mw-redirect" title="The Democratic vice president nomination of 1944">vice-presidential nomination</a>. <a href="/wiki/Henry_A._Wallace" title="Henry A.

However, conservative party leaders, such as Southerner <a href="/wiki/James_F._Byrnes" title="James F. Byrnes">James F. Byrnes</a>, strongly opposed his renomination. They regarded Wallace as being too far to the left, too "progressive" and too friendly to labor to be next in line for the presidency.

The party leaders went to work talking to delegates, cutting deals and applying pressure to persuade them to select Truman. Truman won the second ballot by 1031 votes to 105.
