GamerKiller2347's Opinion on Trump in the Infobox
To go back to the discussion on Trump in the infobox, I would like to bring attention to the fact that 1860 winner Abraham Lincoln does not appear in the infoboxes for Kentucky, Maryland, and Virginia, which were states that Lincoln was on the ballot in and still failed to receive at least 5% of the vote. Also, 1820 winner James Monroe is the only candidate that appears in the infobox, despite the fact that 19.4% of voters did not vote for Monroe. With these 2 reasons, I don't see any reason why this infobox should be treated any differently. GamerKiller2347 (talk) 05:59, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Surely someone more familiar with current consensus on US infoboxes inclusion criteria can bring more light on this, but I'd say that's because Trump was the main challenger here, even if falling below the 5% threshold. Lincoln finished in fourth place in all those three states you mention in 1860. As for Monroe in 1820, well, there was really no alternative candidate to bring in so I dunno who else could be put in the infobox. My two cents as an occasional reader of US elections.

 * In addition to the above, there was another RfC which specifically referred to this contest. It also determined that we should always include at least two candidates in elections infoboxes (if at least two candidates run).  There was a more recent RfC on a similar issue which was largely inconclusive, and does not seem to have overruled the previous consensus.  If someone really wants to reopen this issue, I would recommend a RfC on the Elections and Referendums project.  It would also be wise to advertise it widely (perhaps hist, pol & style).  That said, I think it is pretty clear we should have two candidates in the infobox here.--Darryl Kerrigan (talk) 01:01, 4 July 2020 (UTC)

Dubious
1944 Mississippi margin was greater, and i don't know what else may have been bigger; clearly a wrong statement 2402:8100:396D:7B55:BC3E:C4B5:ACCD:9483 (talk) 11:02, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
