1948, 2004, 2012; 1992 if HW Bush’s opponent was Jimmy Carter.

Obviously 1892- incumbent running for a non-consecutive term, likely high 3rd party/independent share, allegations the previous election was rigged, recent electoral college/popular vote split, etc.

Quote from: Steve from Lambeth on January 05, 2024, 03:17:27 PM
If Joe Biden's reelection prospects resemble those of any Democratic incumbent, Woodrow Wilson is that incumbent. He has ushered through various major bills that are, and remain, the subject of Republican loathing. The Republicans have a star candidate who can point to a substantial record. Matters of policy and substance are unlikely to be discussed and the election will hinge on a few close states where, all things considered, the Democrats are likely to win.

Actually neither. Every election is unique in its own way and there's hardly a precedent for 2024. This one is uniqze in particular.

1880 was the closest election in US History, although we don't know yet if 2024 will be that close, but it could.
