ps. I, too, would be interested if anyone had any vaguely pairwise data on historic US presidential elections, including '92.

There's data (historians' estimates) for the 1860 election in the paper "Would the Borda Count have avoided the Civil War?", http://mason.gmu.edu/~atabarro/Would%20the%20Borda%20Count.pdf . In one of the profiles, Douglas (not Lincoln) is the CW; in the other, there's a cycle.

(Lincoln would have won under IRV with either profile.)
