G. Johnson

[edit]

I decided to add Gary Johnson to the front page because Johnson got 3.55% of the vote and Ralph Nader got 3.6% of the vote and he was included in the main section of the 2000 Presidential election in New Mexico. — Preceding unsigned comment added by I Dan tha Man I (talkcontribs) 21:55, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that Gary Johnson should be included in this result. Even moreso I think that Ralph Nader belongs in the 2000 election results infobox for Florida and the national result box, since one can argue there are special circumstances that made these candidates significant within the context of these particular elections. Nader 2000 got only 2.74% nationally, and only 1.63% in Florida, yet that 1.63% in Florida is arguably what very narrowly won the state for Bush (by 0.009%) and decided the whole election to make George W. Bush president, changing the course of history forever. But apparently some people on here at some point decided that including candidates in the infobox should be based only on a strict arbitrary cutoff point of 5% or more of the vote, without any regard to context. Which is why Gary Johnson will probably be removed from the 2012 NM result box again. Inqvisitor (talk) 23:36, 25 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Where is the County data from?

[edit]

I have located the Doña Ana county results from here:

http://www.sos.state.nm.us/Elections_Data/2012.aspx

and I have noticed a discrepancy between the results reported for Doña Ana County in the corresponding PDF in that link, versus the results reported on the Wikipedia page. I came across this issue after noticing that the Doña Ana County article is missing information on the 2012 general election. I will rectify this issue soon, but wanted some community input first. Thanks. --JasonMacker (talk) 04:20, 7 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
