Which Presidential Election was the Least Important in American history?

[Oswald Acted Alone, You Kook]

I'm gonna say 1820. Monroe wins every state, one vote for John Quincy Adams, 3 dead electors.

Besides that, 1944, 1956, and possibly 1792.

2008 probably. McCain and Obama were identical, so the election really had no effect on the course the country is on.

Election of the first Black President = Important.

This sounds a bit more like 1996.

1960.

No. The first election where looks made the winner, in addition to said winner being incredibly popular and the most beloved president of the past 50 years (except mabye Ronald Reagan) is important.

... not to mention JFK is only loved so much because of his image.

People only care so much about JFK because he was assassinated.

Then why was he popular throught his entire presidency?

True.

Just saying, to me, unimportant means "We're only doing this because we have to". That description fits 1820, 1956, 1944, 1872, and 1984.
