	You spelled Madison wrong.

	Many technical problems with this quiz; you need to see how the side columns look to others (log out if necessary) and decide how you want to arrange them and for what purpose. And the quiz credited me with getting them all, but the "results" only gave me 43, i.e. one shy of 44, without Barack Obama/Illinois. (I think this may have to do with how Grover Cleveland, No. 22 & 24, is counted; 43 men have held 44 Presidencies.) Some of your "elected from" seem odd to me: for example, Calvin Coolidge was governor of Massachusetts before being nominated VP, although he was sworn in in Vermont. Ike was president of Columbia University in New York when nominated for President. So being "elected from" can mean several things.

	WOW! That is a curious spread so far. Half got more than 33 and half got less than 19!

	Calvin Coolidge was a Vermont native, but he was elected from Massachusetts.

	And Eisenhower was elected from New York.

	Grant was elected from two states. Ohio in 1868 and Illinois in 1872.

	You have some of them listed as states they were born in, not elected from (like Coolidge)

	I don't know how anyone is getting Calvin Coolidge right?! I entered "Massachusetts" for Coolidge and it wasn't accepted, although it was accepted for Adams, Kennedy, etc.

	It is misspelled for Coolidge. How did Ohio elect so many presidents and none of them were particularly good?

	"Massachusetts" is misspelled for Coolidge. Also, Nixon was actually living in New York, not California, when he was elected president, although he had previously lived in California most of his life.

	Another note: "elected from" is not a very good term because five presidents - Tyler, Fillmore, A. Johnson, Arthur, and Ford - were never actually elected president, and Ford was never even elected vice president.

	You spelled "Massachusetts" for Coolidge wrong. You added an extra "e" after the "u."
