Granite: thanks for clearing this up! :) Can you source that, or did you build the table?? Thanks again...guess I should leave statistical tabulating to the professionals!

P.S. Interesting 1976 result...and I wonder how the House of Representatives would've broken the tie. My gut tells me the Democrat House would have voted for Carter, but I also know the 'rats detested Carter's "holier than thou" attitude...and they were reasonably comfortable with their moderate-liberal pal from the House, Ford.

I'm guessing Carter would've won anyway, but the vote might have been much more close--not a party line vote.
