"Can You Identify?"

We need your help! We're pretty good at identifying old campaign buttons (in fact, we've written directories identifying of thousands and thousands of primary and third party candidates for Governor, US Senate and Congress) ... but we just cannot figure these ones out. Can you? Please email us your ID's on these pins. We'll honor those political super-sleuths who solve any of these mysteries by naming them here. Note: Readers have already correctly identified a few of these pins, so we've gone ahead and posted the info on those items in the MYSTERY SOLVED section below.
