Electoral votes are the presidential votes actually recorded in the National Archives count, including split and faithless votes. The map uses modern state outlines as a geographic reference; these are not historical boundaries.

Minor popular-vote candidates not separately tabulated by the source are grouped as other recorded votes. Historical popular-vote figures and definitions can vary between compilations.

States selected electors on different schedules; the archive records the election year rather than inventing a single national election day.

Two Maryland electors did not vote. The recorded Electoral College tally includes 286 voting electors.
