 United States presidential election, 2004 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2004 election was the first to be affected by the campaign finance reforms mandated by the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 (also known as the McCain-Feingold Bill for its sponsors in the United States Senate).
As a result, several states had a different number of electors in the U.S. Electoral College in 2004 than in 2000, since the number of electors allotted to each state is equal to the sum of the number of Senators and Representatives from that state.
Although the overall result of the election was not challenged by the Kerry campaign, third-party presidential candidates David Cobb and Michael Badnarik obtained a recount in Ohio.

 Cuban's in the 1992 Presidential Election
In analyzing 1992 election data, Hispanic precincts have ben chosen on the basis of having at least 60 percent Hispanic registration, with Hispanic registration being defined by the county as including only those who were foreign-born.
The 1992 elections saw a broadening of the political space in Miami's Cuban American community, and the challenging of at least some previous stereotypes regarding the political and ideological uniformity of Cuban voters.
Although the former state senator did have Republican primary opposition from a state senate colleague who is also Cuban, he had no Democratic challenger in the general election -- a rather startling state of affairs in a county that had not sent Republican to Congress prior to 1989.

 Plurality Wins in the 1992 Presidential Race: Perot's Contribution to Clinton's Victory
The 1992 and 1996 results would indicate that a significant portion of the Perot vote was coming from Republicans.
In the 1976 presidential race, for example, another weakened Republican incumbent, Gerald Ford, nearly came back to defeat another Democratic governor of a southern state.
There is a chance that without Perot in 1992, a good number of these voters might not have been ready to shift to Clinton over Bush.

 andrewcoyne.com: What East-West split?
Further to Chris' point, information is available from Elections Canada which indicates that an average riding in PEI represents a population of just under 34 000 (and recall that fewer than that are eligible voters).
The puerility of the recent election campaign reinforced this - it had the tone of a high school student council popularity contest, not the gravitas of a sovereign, consequential nation deliberating its place in world affairs.
The Liberals have created deficiencies in how Canada is goverened by effectively reducing our elections to a single national representative in the person of the Prime Minister: on all important matters the discipline of the governing party ensures that the voice of the minority is suppressed.
