By default, a lot of elections before 1900 have to be at the top of the list for most boring.  All of the elections that I've lived through were fairly interesting, although I suppose 2004 would have to be the least so.  Out of the 20th century elections 1996, 1956, and 1972 all seem rather boring.

Why? That's when the campaigns got really nasty.
I think a lot of the 19th century elections are very interesting to read about now, but they would have been very boring to live through, considering how most candidates didn't actually campaign, and most people did not have access to media to the degree they would in the 20th century.
