	"Someday they should just hold them both in the same place, just for fun." They did...1972...Miami. Also a few times in Chicago.

	it's a bit sad that the last city i guessed was the city that i am currently in. sorry about it san diego

	The two party system is wrecking our country, but it makes for good trivia.

	ademuth93:	Jan 17th, 2012 at 19:10 GMT		2 points
	I thought I did quite well. I guess 59% of takers are better than me, though. =(

	gritterr:	Jan 17th, 2012 at 19:19 GMT		20 points
	Wow, I did not see Atlantic City coming. Silver lining: nobody else did either.

	Are there retired Miami Beach hoteliers who look back fondly on 1972?

	I said Atlantic City because of Boardwalk Empire.

	MasterNachosII:	Jan 17th, 2012 at 20:43 GMT		19 points
	I was going through big cities and was half-way through putting 'Toronto' before I realized what I was doing; I no longer deserve to be a Sporcle taker...

	Thank God I got Baltimore at the last second, sheesh.

	HokieRebel:	Jan 17th, 2012 at 21:08 GMT		4 points
	Charleston, SC, 1860 was the first site of the Dem. Convention, but the party split over slavery, and the convention ended, and northern and southern Democrats then held separate conventions.

	alls I know is that 68 was CHICAGO

	JennElise04:	Jan 17th, 2012 at 22:55 GMT		1 point
	Baltimore was an unfortunate omission. Ouch.

	RobtheHob:	Jan 17th, 2012 at 22:55 GMT		9 points
	Just curious about something. Is it a political statement to not ever have it in Washington D.C. or is it not allowed? It must be something. It's not just like they've never picked it.

	Zak6009:	Jan 17th, 2012 at 23:05 GMT		0 points
	ATLANTIC CITY? I would have never guessed that... when going through the states in my head, that's one of the towns that usually crosses my mind on these things, but figured not to bother with it.

	jonesjeffum:	Jan 17th, 2012 at 23:20 GMT		4 points
	Washington DC does not have enough electoral votes

	The_Goat:	Jan 18th, 2012 at 00:09 GMT		9 points
	I felt stupid for trying Las Vegas, as if a party would want to be identified with such debauchery. Then ATLANTIC CITY turned out to be an answer?

	cellodave:	Jan 18th, 2012 at 00:54 GMT		11 points
	So I got Atlantic City but didn't get Philly or Baltimore - guess that means I like gambling more than geography!

	ivyagogo:	Jan 18th, 2012 at 01:44 GMT		5 points
	I only missed Baltimore, Atlantic City, and Cincinnati. Unfortunately, they counted a lot.

	socraticmethod:	Jan 18th, 2012 at 01:52 GMT		1 point
	Managed to miss Dallas. I usually forget San Antonio on the list of Texas cities... I took extra care to remember that one, but forgot its larger counterpart. And as for Atlantic City, I actually almost typed it in, but then laughed it off and said to myself "they'd never hold one there!"

	LoveGeography:	Jan 18th, 2012 at 04:22 GMT		2 points
	Wow! If you type Chicago, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York, you receive over half of the answers! It just goes to show you how long the center of the U.S. population was far east compared to now.

	I wasn't too surprised about Atlantic City being on the list. Who knows? Maybe Las Vegas will be on this list in the future; this country may be heading in that direction, sadly.

	Someday I'll learn to spell Cincinnati

	Josh:	Jan 18th, 2012 at 15:08 GMT		4 points
	Minneapolis and St. Paul shouldn't really be interchangeable.

	Rob42:	Jan 18th, 2012 at 18:54 GMT		1 point
	Excellent quiz, but caught out on Atlantic City though.

	jseve001:	Jan 18th, 2012 at 20:17 GMT		3 points
	Only missed Atlantic City. I agree, Minneapolis shouldn't count for St. Paul.

	sunking1056:	Jan 22nd, 2012 at 12:54 GMT		1 point
	Well, Rob Lowe should get at least one of these

	krh5038:	Feb 15th, 2012 at 21:57 GMT		1 point
	I thought I typed Atlantic City after Vegas didn't work. Guess I spelled it wrong.

	ChicagoGuy88:	Mar 13th, 2012 at 13:14 GMT		1 point
	Just answering Chicago, you get over a quarter of the total answers right there.

	Gingeralee:	May 9th, 2012 at 00:40 GMT		2 points
	The title of this quiz was severely misleading.

	having a sporcle challenge on this quiz, last second, . . . uh boston, barely one by one!!

	walkalong:	Aug 16th, 2012 at 01:29 GMT		1 point
	4 left, hmmm, nothing in NJ yet, maybe Jersey City, or Trenton, or Newark, couldn't be Atlantic City, that would just be silly, well I guess it never happened in NJ, now let's see if I missed anything out west... I go on to get the last three and give up. facepalm
