Every presidential election has involved some meaningless historic streak like this, which was then ended.
definitely meaningless
Interesting link.
In Russia they’ve alternated between leaders who are bald or balding and those with fulls heads of hair going back to Tsar Nicholas I in 1825. Wikipedia says this is “most likely a coincidence”, lol.
We had an eerie thing where every President who was elected or reelected in a year ending in zero died in office. This lasted from 1840 until Reagan was shot but lived.
And there was a thing that if the Washington Redskins win their last home game before the election the incumbent party won the White House. This lasted until 2004 when the Skins lost but Bush won. I’m sure some democrats used this as evidence he stole the election! In 2008 the pattern reemerged.
The Skins host the 1-6 Carolina Panthers this Sunday.
