'92 would be my top one to add as well. They have a good variety of elections, so no others come to mind.

Though adding 88 over 92 was a terrible decision .

1980, 1992, 2004 would be at the top of my list.

For more historical elections, I think 1800 and 1824 would be cool.

Wallace is playable in 1968 so I would say yes

1876, 1992, 1912, 1984 (mainly to see how on earth mondale could win), 1980 as long as Anderson is playable as well, 1856, 1880, 1884 and 1936 for the same reasons as 1984 but with the party in reverse

i played the game when it was only 1896,1968 , 2012 and it was free then . So I have essentially played every election on here as in late 2015 - early 2016 they added all the rest of these elections.

False.  1980 was super-winnable for the Democrats.  Carter opened 1980 out-polling Reagan by 30 points and throughout the spring and summer led him pretty consistently.  Reagan started outpacing Carter in the late summer, but the race was tied heading into the final debate performance.  You also had Anderson who polled 10-20% pretty consistently the whole time.
