Template talk:Democratic Presidential Tickets

Breckenridge/Lane was not a Democratic ticket. Douglas/Johnson was the duly chosen ticket in adherence to the party's by-laws: Breckenridge's delegates hung the Charleston convention by walking out, prompting a second convention in Baltimore. The delegates walked out of that one too, but this time the organizers had ensured there would be enough alternates around to have a quorum, so they were able to make an official nomination.. Breckenridge/Lane was a third party ticket, like Roosevelt/Johnson after those two lost at the 1912 GOP convention. Turtle Fan (talk) 22:42, November 3, 2015 (UTC)
