formatting messed up under firefox[edit]

The table in this page gets mostly clobbered by the NYT newspaper image in Firefox. Could some formatting guru look into it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.202.80.51 (talk) 01:54, 21 March 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Electoral picture peculiarity[edit]

Why is the graphic depiction of electoral votes skewed? Rarely nowadays does one see democratic votes colored red and and republican votes blue. --maru (talk) Contribs 20:51, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Maryland[edit]

Roosevelt won Maryland by 51 votes according to the US Election Atlas link. On the pictured NY Times front page, Maryland is listed under TR. Why did 7 of Maryland's 8 electoral votes go to Parker? 74.12.156.161 02:47, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Maryland used the system whereby each elector was voted for separately. A Roosevelt elector got the single highest number of votes but Parker electors got the next seven highest. There also seems to have been a lot of Democrat chicanery in the state. The "Wilson Law" is hard to track on the net but this account details some biases: [1].

YOU HAVE THE WRONG ELECTORAL COLLEGE MAP[edit]

Racist Campaign?[edit]

There's a seeming throw away line about Parker running a "racist campaign" against Roosevelt, yet no mention of this anywhere else on the page, or in Parker's own Wiki page. This seems a bit out of place considering that every other description of the election says it was "marked by goodwill" and that both candidates were "first rate". A cite detailing Parker's racism would be appreciated! HandsomeSam57 (talk) 02:52, 10 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
