	First "68" there should be 64.

	While I haven't researched every election year, a list of all declared candidates would be incomplete without Tommy G. Thompson of Wisconsin (2008) and Thaddeus McCotter of Michigan (2012)

	Thanks everybody - I'll check up on it. I just got tired of typing Stassen...

	I'm pretty sure that Herman Cain is from Georgia

	You're right - not sure why I had Florida there. Fixed now. Thanks.

	I second on Thaddeus McCotter (R-Mich.), who was considered serious enough to include in the 2011 Iowa debates, if not later. Just so folks have some idea of your scope, perhaps you could cite a source such as Dave Leip's Atlas of Presidential Elections (which is on line and generally accepted) at the top of your quiz and/or indicate your criterion or criteria for inclusion or exclusion (running in a primary? widespread speculation? participating in a televised debate? nomination at a convention?) Otherwise five orange orbs.

	Nice quiz. Are you going to do one for Democrats?

	http://www.sporcle.com/games/bluewhite/all-democratic-presidential-candidates-since-1960 shakes, I tried to use candidates that actually declared, not just formed "exploratory committees" or were talked out. The task got harder the farther back I went, because until the primary system really got going, leading candidates would employ local favorite sons to drain support away from serious challengers.

	Nixon was officially resident in New York in 1968.

	Margaret Chase Smith ran in 1964. She had 27 delegates at the convention.
