[edit] William Foster Home State?

On this page, Foster's home state is Illinois, yet on the wiki article about Foster, he is from Massachusetts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Video Gamer3 (talk • contribs) 01:08, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

My impression from the Foster article is that in 1928 he was living in Illinois (Chicago, I think). Mangoe (talk) 01:28, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Electoral picture peculiarity

Why is the graphic depiction of electoral votes skewed? Rarely nowadays does one see democratic votes colored red and and republican votes blue. --maru (talk) Contribs 20:51, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Prohibition Party nomination

Question - Is there some reason that the article suggests Hoover ran with the Prohibition Party endorsement? At the Prohibition Party National Convention (Chicago IL, 7/10-12/1928), William F. Varney was nominated for President over Hoover by a margin of 68-45. "Ohio Elects the President" (Mansfield OH: Bookmasters, Inc., 2000), p. 100. Hoover did appear on the ballot in California as the Prohibition Party nominee, where he received 14,394 votes. Varney received 20,095 votes from other states.

[edit] Hoover's state

Did Hoover run as a candidate from Iowa or California? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.15.209.161 (talk) 18:40, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Coolidge and Dawes

These two gentlemen did not seek the Republican presidential nominaton. Therefore, they should be removed from the article. GoodDay (talk) 22:30, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
