 U.S. presidential election, 1852 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The U.S. presidential election of 1852 was in many ways a replay of the election of 1844.
The Democrats, anticipating a loss in the general election but not wanting to re-nominate 1848 nominee Lewis Cass, instead nominated the virtually unknown Franklin Pierce of New Hampshire.
Pierce and running mate William King would go on to win what was at the time one of the nation's largest electoral victories, trouncing Scott and his vice presidential nominee, William Graham of North Carolina, 254 electoral votes to 42.

 An historical analysis of the apportionment of delegate votes at the National Conventions of the two major parties
When the first Democratic National Convention was held to choose the Presidential and Vice-Presidential candidates for the 1832 Election, the delegate apportionment among the States was very simple: it was equal to the number of Electoral Votes each State would have in the upcoming General Election.
By 1932, although the Democratic Convention that year was the last in which it would be used, the "2/3 rule" was clearly in its death throes: many at that Convention openly opposed the rule, including the eventual nominee and President Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
The Democrats themselves embarked on a major change in their delegate apportionment for the 1944 Convention: they finally began to use the Republicans' "bonus delegates" and themselves started to move away from a strict adherence to a State's Electoral Vote as a basis of representation.

 DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION
The 1968 Democratic National Convention was held in Chicago by the United States Democratic Party, for the purposes of choosing the Democratic nominee for the 1968 U.S. Presidential Election.

The convention itself was held between August 26 and August 29, 1968, but protests and clashes with police happened for days before and after the convention itself.

 U.S. presidential election, 1948 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The U.S. presidential election of 1948 is best known as one of the greatest political upsets in history, as incumbent President Harry S Truman defeated Republican Thomas Dewey against the predictions of most contemporary polls and in spite of a three-way split in his own Democratic party.
Spirits were low: the Republicans had taken control of both houses of Congress and a majority of state governorships during the 1946 midterm elections by running against Truman, and his administration did not seem to have become more popular.
On July 12, the Democratic National Convention convened in Philadelphia (in the same hall in which the Republicans had nominated Dewey).
