[edit]

"Dole sought the Republican presidential nomination in 1980, but quickly dropped out of the race." That comma is unnecessary because "but quickly dropped out" is not an independent clause. Please delete that comma. 2401:7000:CAE9:1A00:81AA:A24E:E353:1E1E (talk) 08:25, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mondale?

[edit]

"Dole's loss makes him the only person to lose elections for both the vice presidency and the presidency in the history of the United States" - surely Mondale (Vice President 1980, President 1984) qualifies here too? 150.143.224.183 (talk) 17:39, 24 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to be right. There's no source given for the statement in the lede and I didn't find this factoid repeated in the body, so I have removed it. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 23:23, 24 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
