Chester A. Arthur was never a presidential candidate. He was listed as one of those campaigning for the Republican Party nomination as the term he took over after the assassination of James Garfield was coming to an end, but he didn't offer much of a campaign; he knew that his health was failing. The 1884 Republican Party nomination went to James G. Blaine, who just barely lost to Democrat Grover Cleveland. The former President passed away less than 21 months after leaving the White House.

When Chester A. Arthur ran for Vice President in 1880, his opponent was William H. English.
