Thanks again for all the good work.

I wonder if in your historical comments it would be right to also mention Anderson cutting into Carter's vote in 1980 when analyzing trends in state voting. Although nominally a Republican, his RINO Independent candidacy seemingly hurt Carter much more than Reagan, maybe tipping some states and certainly making the margin in some state different than it would have been without him.

Since you mention the effect of Perot in 1992 and 1996, consistency might be served to mention Anderson in 1980 unless my memory is faulty and that third party try did not affect outcomes or margins.
