The angry orange didn’t even bother with the ceremonial transfer of power by attending Biden’s inauguration ceremony nor welcoming the new President and First Lady to the White House. A total lack of class shows what he truly is; a national embarrassment.
Nixon won 6 southern states, with a total of 66 electoral votes. Had some or most of those Wallace votes gone to Humphrey instead (with the corresponding electoral college votes) Nixon would have lost the election as these southern states would be in Humphrey’s electoral vote count, not Nixon’s.
Carmen forgot to mention George Wallace posing a serious 3rd party challenge during the 1968 election. He had enough support in the South to win 5 states. The south at the time was still heavily Democratic, so Wallace’s spoiler role may have made a difference.
The Democrats did the Gerry much better. Their mastercraft allowed them to dominate the House of Representatives for 40 continuous years: 1955-1995.
