1920 - Cox
1924 - LaFollette

1992 - Clinton
1996 - Clinton
2000 - Gore
2004 - Kerry


Welcome aboard, Tom!

I second that. Hi Tom, and welcome to the forum. Btw, how come you would've chosen Nixon over McGovern in 1972? It's just that it seems out of sync with your other votes.

Welcome aboard Tom. It's nice to have some new Democrats on the forum.

Btw, Michael Z, could you vote in the elections today, I'm up for re-election on the Fantasy Elections.

1948: Dewey

1952: Eisenhower

1956: Eisenhower

1960: Kennedy

1964: Goldwater: He opposed unconstitutional government, he was founder of Arizona NAACP and other civil rights intiative in his state.

1968: Humphrey

1972: McGovern

1976: Carter

1980: John Anderson (if that's not a choice, then Reagan)

1984: Reagan

1988: Bush

1992: Perot (if that's not a choice, then Clinton)

1996: Perot (if that's not a choice, then Dole)

2000: Bush (though in retrospect, I may have gone Gore)

That makes it 9-5 for me.

This post was rather a while ago, but I do believe that that was probably me forgetting to edit that particular year.  Anderson is light years ahead of both candidates there.

I'd probably have voted Democratic in almost every presidential election since the war, although I may have considered voting for Eisenhower in 52 and 56, and I may have put a peg on my nose to vote for Nixon in 72.

In those days, you voted for TWO people for President, and the guy who came in 1st became President, and the guy who came in 2nd became VP. In 1800, the Democratic-Republicans screwed up, and they had a Burr-Jefferson tie that went to Congress. The 12th amendment got rid of that stupid technicality.

I assume I don't have future knowledge but roughly my OTL political beliefs.

For example, I assume I oppose slavery, but pre-1840 it doesn't present itself as a big issue and that I am not especially violent about it (given the full fury of my current anti-slavery beliefs and no future knowledge of how foolish it would have been, I could easily have joined John Brown's gang of terrorists/freedom fighters/insurgents/insertwordhere, or at least supported the Underground Railroad).

Years I'm mainly a Democrat:

1789: Washington
1792: Washington
1796: Adams
1800: Jefferson
1804: Jefferson
1808: Madison
1812: Madison
1816: Monroe
1820: Monroe
1824: Clay (JQ Adams w/hindsight)
1828: Jackson (JQ Adams w/hindsight)
1832: Clay
1836: Van Buren
1840: Van Buren

Radical Anti-Slavery years:
1844: Birney
1848: Van Buren
1852: Hale
1856: Fremont
1860: Lincoln
1864: Lincoln
1868: Grant (w/hindsight, Colfax)
1872: Grant (w/hindsight, Greeley)
1876: Hayes (w/hindsight, Tilden)

The Gilded Age:
1880: Garfield
1884: Blaine (w/hindsight, Cleveland)
1888: Cleveland
1892: Cleveland
1896: McKinley
1900: McKinley
1904: Parker
1908: Taft
1912: reluctantly Taft
1916: Hughes
1920: Harding
1924: Coolidge
1928: Hoover (w/hindsight, undecided)

FDR-era and Beyond (mostly Republican, with some Libertarian)
1932: Write-in DanielX Tongue (egad! the candidates sucked!)
1936: reluctantly Landon
1940: Willkie
1944: undecided (w/hindsight, Dewey)
1948: Dewey
1952: Eisenhower
1956: Eisenhower
1960: Nixon
1964: Goldwater
1968: Nixon (w/hindsight, write-in Reagan)
1972: Nixon (w/hindsight, Hospers)
1976: MacBride (w/hindsight, probably Ford)
1980: Reagan (although I might have considered Anderson or Clark)
1984: Reagan
1988: Bush (w/hindsight, Paul)
1992: Perot (I supported Bush, but I was 5 years old at the time...)
1996: Dole (supported); Support Forbes in Rep. Primary (I supported Dole, Alexander, and Gramm for no reason other than name recognition)
2000: Browne (supported); Support Forbes in Rep. Primary (I supported Dole and McCain)
2004: Bush (w/hindsight....gee.... they all pretty much sucked in 04)
