Notes
- If not for unpledged electors, Rush would have won 178 (68.2%) votes.

- The Whig Party ran regional candidates in 1836. William H. Harrison and Francis Granger ran in Northern states, while Hugh Lawson White and John Tyler ran in Southern states. Daniel Webster was on the ballot in Massachusetts and Willie Person Mangum received votes from the Electoral College without being on the ballot.
- Douglas and Johnson were chosen at the national nominating convention after most of the Southern delegations walked out, who held a separate national nominating convention to nominate Breckinridge and Lane.
- If not for 17 invalidated electors from Union-occupied Louisiana and Tennessee, Lincoln and Johnson would have won 229 (91.6%) votes.
- If not for 17 invalidated electors from Union-occupied Louisiana and Tennessee, McClellan and Pendleton would have won 8.4% of the votes.
- If not for the 14 invalidated electors from voting irregularities in Arkansas and Louisiana, Grant and Wilson would have won 300 (82.0%) votes.
- Greeley died after the election but before the Electoral College convened, and was not replaced for the vote. The ticket's intended delegates were scattered.
- If not for the 14 invalidated electors for Grant and Wilson from voting irregularities in Arkansas and Louisiana, Greeley and Brown's 66 votes would have been 18.0%.
- If not for a faithless elector, Eisenhower and Nixon would have won 458 (86.3%) in 1956.
- Eagleton withdrew from the ticket and was replaced by Shriver.
- If not for a faithless elector, Nixon and Agnew would have won 521 (96.8%) Electoral College votes.
- If not for a faithless elector, Ford would have won 241 (44.8%) votes.
- A faithless elector swapped their votes for President and Vice President in the Electoral College, otherwise the Dukakis/Bentsen ticket would have won 112 (20.8%) votes.
- A faithless elector voted Edwards for President and Vice President in the Electoral College, otherwise Kerry would have won 252 (46.8%) votes.
- If not for faithless electors, Trump and Pence would have won 306 (56.9%) Electoral College votes each, while Clinton and Kaine would have won 232 (43.1%) votes.
