I just heard Joe Biden say that there have only been 3 instances where incumbent president of U.S. has been defeated. After hearing that I searched my memory and could only confidently think of two such cases: when Carter was defeated in 1980 by Reagan and when George H.W. Bush was defeated by Clinton in 1992. I did not consider 1976 when Carter defeated Ford, mainly because Ford himself had not been elected, but this could literally fall into such a category.

Anyway, when I did a search and went to Wikipedia, the 1980 and 1992 elections were not listed, and I there also saw numerous other instances, more than the three mentioned by Biden.

So, my question is: what are the elections of 1980 and 1992 listed in this category; and also why it would not apply to 1976 election as well.

As far as Biden's comment is concerned, I will likely find out to what he was referring later.

Hope I am doing this correctly (posting on talk page) as I just created account.
