I noticed on the stats page that Bush and Dukakis combined finished first in 3115 counties... and they finished second in 3113 counties.

That's suggestive that a third party candidate popped up and took the second place spot in 2 counties.  But I haven't yet been able to figure out where.  Any help?

They tied in Ferry County, WA. Both get a first place ranking, neither get a second.

Same thing happened in 1984 in Gallatin County, KY.
