Before 1832, parties did not nominate one individual to represent the party in a presidential election. So I have included all people from this era who ran for president under a major party label.

Party abbreviations: Fed = Federalist. Dem-Rep = Democratic-Republican. Nat'l Rep = National Republican. Dem = Democratic. Rep = Republican. Nat'l Union = National Union. Prog = Progressive. Soc = Socialist (bonus answers only). Let me know what you think of the amount of time.

Nice quiz! Time feels a little excessive to me -- five minutes would probably be plenty.

But in 1912 was the Progressive Party a "major party"?

Not that it means anything at all, but I see that you have Nader as a bonus. How about a Ross Perot bonus? He received far more votes (nearly 20 million in 1992 and 8 million in 1996) than all of Nader's campaigns combined (Nader has never surpassed 1 million in any election). Unless, of course, you don't consider the Reform Party, which Perot just up and invented for 1996, a major party.

I think it's not that the Reform Party wasn't major (to use sports terminology, they were a mid-major), but that when he ran in 1992, Perot was independent. He didn't run as a nominee of a party until 1996. The 1912 Progressives came in 2nd place and beat the incumbent president, so that would indicate they were pretty major!

Ah, thank you. I was conflating the American Independent Party with simply being an Independent. Sorry. Although, in researching that, I find it interesting how close Perot came to winning, especially considering the fact that he, as you point out, didn't even have a party. Good stuff.

Mrblonde811: Its a valid point. The party didn't exist until the election when Roosevelt basically created it solely so he could run (and he did get more votes than Taft), but the party did contest many congressional and gubernatorial elections that year and the following years and had a sizable number of congressman win election, which I think separates it from other third parties. I think it can count as a major party.

"Before 1832, parties did not nominate one individual to represent the party in a presidential election. So I have included all people from this era who ran for president under a major party label." Then they either shouldn't be included or the name of the quiz should be changed to reflect this.
