Maybe Canada can be added in at some point, at least in the way Puerto Rico is technically usable.

Wait for the 1872 one it lists Horace Greeley as a Democrat when he ran under the Liberal Republican banner.

I followed Dave's calculator on that because the electoral vote allocation was a bit of a mess due to his death:

Reading on it a bit more, LR looks more accurate here.

What should be done about those EVs? The next version I'm preparing of this simulator allows for assigning the EVs to the people it actually went to. When this original version was released, that wasn't possible, so only the states he won (and didn't get EVs for) were considered. Should the actual recipients of the EVs be entered & used?

Maybe something like “various (party)? I think that’s what 270 does.
