1968: Humphrey
1972: McGovern
1976: Carter

1984: Mondale or maybe sit out

2008: Kerry
2012: Edwards

no Anderson in 1980 or LaFollette in 1924 either

[Lt. Gov. Immy]

Why is Lincoln a 3rd party candidate?

Well, he was kind of a third party at the time, neither a Democrat nor a Whig.  I just didn't want to admit I'd vote for a Republican.

[Nym90]

Thanks for your vote in advance, Huckelberry! I'll be 42 in 2020, so I guess I'd be old enough to run by then...

Ah, I suspected that was your real reason. I think he has to be seen as a major party candidate anyway, sorry Immy.

Why wouldn't you have voted for him during the war?

[Lt. Gov. Immy]

A Democrat from Idaho. Now THAT is scary.

Not scary, the wave of the future.  

[TheWildCard]

Why wouldn't you have voted for him during the war?

Well I might have felt that we could have gotten involved earlier and without a doubt I would have been concerned about a person haveing more then 2 terms as President.

But weren't the Republicans at the time more isolationist? I know the American senate stopped Jewish children from entering the US during the 30s.

Yes, that is true... But I must revert back to my stance that it would have worried me to see someone get more then 2 terms as president

No, not the wave of the future, the wave of the past.  
My dad was born in Lewiston and my grandfather in Kendrick (it's up the Clearwater river) and they have told me that Nez Perce county was traditionally democratic.  

Not anymore!

I'm from Lewiston, so I can tell you that I think that the Democrats are coming back.  In 2002 the Ds won all but one of the local races and voted for al lthe statewide D candidates but two.

And up here in Moscow (home of the University of Idaho where I am a student) there is a substantial Democratic population and the Republicans are moderate if not liberal.

And Boise just elected a Democratic mayor last year.

What does that mean?  Probably nothing, but I can get my hopes up, can't I?

Idaho was strongly Democratic until TR won it in 1904. It still voted Dem in 1912 and 1916, and then followed the rest of the country in voting Dem during the period 1932-1948. But the last time it voted Dem was 1964, and then only very narrowly.

He also supported Democrat Winfield Scott Hancock in 1880, who was attacking Rep. James A Garfield for being opposed to the Chinese Exclusion Act. In other words, he would have voted for a man who wanted to deport him!

He's a little out there.
