Rooney's Presidential Election Rankings

Not much to comment on, but I do intend on following this series until its conclusion.

Of all the re-match elections, this is your pick? 1832, 1900, 1944, 1940, 1956, and 1984 are all worse/ more boring.

1832 had Henry Clay losing, something that never gets old. If you mean 1828, where-in Jackson came back to beat Adams after the election four years earlier, that was pretty epic. 1900 is a McKinley victory, which is never boring. 1940 saw the British sabotage of an American political party's convention and its sequel took place with the backdrop of one of the most epic conquests of human history. 1956 and 1984 at least had good results, and the 1984 Dem primaries would've been pretty cool to see play out.

Will 1860 be number one or not?

Christ, boy, we're in the 50's! We've got quite a ways to go, young one, and other contenders (though some are more viable than others) would have to be 1824, 1968, 1912, are out there.

It must be hard for you to do these rankings at this point.

I'm quite sure he can manage.

Since I first read about it, 1796 has been one of my favorite elections, filled with my favorite "characters" of American history. I was glad to read your take on it.
