The challenge is this: with a POD at most 12 years before the election, try to get a third party(there needs to be at least three parties active in this election) that did get at least one electoral vote to end up winning the election. Any nominee is chosen for both the main and third parties, but it must be out of the top 5 of the nominees actually chosen. No killing anyone off either. Here are the elections you can try and get to win. I've excluded the 1912 election because that's been done plenty in alternate history stories. If you make it so it goes to the House of Representatives, explain why they would pick the third party
* 1856-Native American/Know Nothing Party(149 needed to win, 8 OTL)
