	Who Will Win the 2004 U.S. Presidential Election?
		The winner of the 2004 U. Presidential election will be Democratic Governor James B. Hunt, Jr.
		We find that the best jobs for presidential candidates to have are Director of Central Intelligence, general officer in the United States Armed Forces, Governor, President, and U. Representative (in that order).
		We analyzed the government experience of the two major party candidates in each of the U. Presidential elections since 1932 in an attempt to discover a formula for determining the outcome of future (or hypothetical) U. Presidential elections.

	AllRefer.com - Trent Lott (U.S. History, Biography) - Encyclopedia
		Lott was subsequently minority leader (2001–3), resigning after he was widely criticized for remarks at a birthday party for Senator Strom Thurmond in which he implied that the United States would have better off if the 1948 presidential election had been won by Thurmond (who ran on a segregationist platform).
		Already a conservative, he became a Republican and was elected to the House of Representatives in 1972, serving as House Republican whip from 1981 to 1988, when he first won election to the Senate.
		He became Senate whip in 1994, and when the majority leader, Bob Dole, resigned to run for the presidency in mid-1996, Senate Republicans chose the gregarious, telegenic, and more strongly conservative Lott to succeed him.

	2000 Presidential Election
		The 2000 presidential election between the Republican ticket of George W. Bush and Richard Cheney and the Democratic slate of Albert Gore, Jr., and Joseph Lieberman resulted in the most bizarre vote count in American history.
		The Democrats then sought court action mandating a ballot recount in counties where irregularities were claimed in the counting of the ballots, particularly the failure to count votes where ballots were punched only partly through to indicate a candidate choice, the so-called "hanging chads".
		After granting the Bush campaign Petition for a Writ of Certiorari, on December 4 the United States Supreme Court,

	The Real Third-Party Candidate in 1948
		Like Ralph Nader's voters in 2000, the leftist insurgent's supporters in 1948 cost Democrats several states: Michigan, New Jersey, and New York went narrowly to Dewey, whose civil-rights posture was at best platitudinous and ephemeral and whose antipathy to labor was legendary.
		Why the eerie silence about Wallace, who was Vice-President of the United States during Franklin D. Roosevelt's third term (1941-1945) and became the 1948 presidential nominee of the Progressive Citizens of America party?
		If anything, he was the fourth-party candidate in the 1948 popular vote, coming in behind another candidate who, like him, had bolted the Democrats to run on an insurgent ticket.

		Thus, the direct challenge to KMT political domination that the coming presidential election represents is a potential watershed in Taiwan’s politics and democratic evolution.
		The outcome of the election, hence, is of major concern to both the PRC and the United States (albeit in rather different regards).
		Although supplemental elections that increased Taiwan’s representation in these bodies were held starting in 1969, the huge majorities of senior legislators continued through 1990, guaranteeing KMT control whether or not the party won on election day.

	Opinion poll -
		The best-known failure of opinion polling to date in the United States was the prediction that Thomas Dewey would defeat Harry S. Truman in the 1948 U.S. Presidential election.
		In the United Kingdom, most polls failed to predict the Conservative election victories of 1970 and 1992, and Labour's victory in 1974.
		Gallup launched a subsidiary in the United Kingdom, where it correctly predicted Labour's victory in the 1945 general election, in contrast with virtually all other commentators, who expected the Conservative Party, led by Winston Churchill, to win easily.
