General Election Factoid

"The 1892 U.S. Presidential election was the first and only U.S. Presidential election where both an incumbent U.S. President and an ex-U.S. President both ran as the major party nominees."

I'm not disputing this, but it's a bit of a squishy "fact": ex-President Theodore Roosevelt ran against sitting President Taft in 1912, and received more votes (popular and electoral) than Taft: the fact that TR did so as a non-Republican, non-Democratic third party candidate seems like a bit of an odd way to define "major party" if you ask me. It might be worth adding a quick mention about the 1912 election just to clarify the meaning.Konchevnik81 (talk) 21:12, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
