More recently, though, little-known hidden Easter eggs on ["404 Not Found"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_404) pages have become an outlet for the candidates' overworked web designers to let out some humor in a sea of otherwise serious policy pages. Below are the 404 pages on each of the current candidate's websites, along with my ranking of them —setting politics aside, for once.

I'm a _huge_ sucker for Kate McKinnon's spot-on impression of Warren on Saturday Night Live. And [unfortunately](https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/1097116612279316480), seeing a campaign embrace SNL is like a breath of fresh air these days. [Watch all of the Kate McWarren videos so far here; you won't regret it.](https://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/cast/kate-mckinnon-15056/impersonation/elizabeth-warren-287903)
Although the designer who selected this GIF likely had _thousands_ of choices when searching "[Bernie finger wagging GIF](https://www.google.com/search?q=Bernie+finger+wagging+GIF&tbm=isch&tbs=itp:animated)," the text beside it is well-written and funny —even though we both know putting a page at [berniesanders.com/zxcliaosid](https://berniesanders.com/zxcliaosid/) probably won't be a top priority of a President Sanders.
A ballsy move, considering Beto's infamous [DUI arrest](https://www.politifact.com/texas/statements/2019/mar/14/club-growth/beto-orourke-arrested-dwi-flee-scene/) in the '90s —but still a clever ask for a donation and a great use of a GIF, even if it's left over from his Senate campaign.
Another clean and simple page with a top-notch GIF. It injected some emotion into visiting [kamalaharris.com/alskdjf](https://kamalaharris.com/alskdjf).

I love, love, _love_ Pete's design for his whole campaign, and his beautiful 404 page is no exception. In case you didn't know, Pete for America has an entire ["Design Toolkit"](https://design.peteforamerica.com/) publicly available for all to view and use, with really cool and in-depth explanations for all of their choices —even their [color palette](https://design.peteforamerica.com/colors). Very progressive indeed.
Love the photo choice. But although pains me to go against my Senator from my home state, I still _cannot stand_ his choice of font. Oh well, I guess that's now a criterion for running for president in 2020.

Not sure if donating to Yang 2020 will help put a page at [yang2020.com/alsdjfzoif](https://www.yang2020.com/alsdjfzoif) —the actual URL I visited to grab this screenshot —but the Bitmoji Andrew looks pretty chill.
This is the 404 page of someone who won't forget the [Midwestern roots](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uff_da) she comes from once she moves into the White House...or writes a memoir about her campaign from her Minnesota home.

## Disqualified Candidates...
These candidates haven't configured a custom 404 page, settling for the default Drupal or WordPress text. Do they _really_ think they can run the free world with their websites in this shape? 🙄 _</s>_
