This list of 1992 United States presidential electors contains members of the Electoral College, known as "electors", who cast ballots to elect the president of the United States and vice president of the United States in the 1992 presidential election. There are 538 electors from the 50 states and the District of Columbia.[1]
The members of the 1992 Electoral College met on December 14, 1992, the Tuesday after the second Wednesday in December.[2] Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton and Senator Al Gore received 370 electoral college votes. President George Bush and Vice President Dan Quayle received 168 votes. Independent Ross Perot did not receive any electoral college votes despite earning nearly 19% of the popular vote.[3]
While every state except Nebraska and Maine chooses the electors by statewide vote, many states require that one elector be designated for each congressional district. These electors are chosen by each party before the general elections. A vote for that party then confirms their position. In all states except Nebraska and Maine, each state's electors are winner-take-all. In Maine and Nebraska within each congressional district one elector is allocated by popular vote – the states' remaining two electors (representing the two U.S. Senate seats) are winner-take-both. Except where otherwise noted, such designations refer to the elector's residence in that district rather than election by the voters of the district.
