I consider winning by a double-digits a landslide, not a massive one (like 1964, 1972 or 1984), but of sort anyway.

I consider winning by a margin of at least 10% while winning a majority of the vote to be a landslide. Near-10% victories like 1940 (9.8%) and 1980 (9.7%) are close enough, so I count them anyways.

Agreed.

The Electoral Vote doesn't mean that much. Just look at 1912.

On the other hand, Wilson had a double-digits margin over the next candidate.
