1968: George Wallace is the Democrats nominee

Let's assume, say, a Nixon/Agnew vs. Wallace/Connally vs. McCarthy/McGovern...

Former Vice-President Richard M Nixon (R-NY)/Governor Spiro T Agnew (R-MD) 370 electoral votes
Former Governor George Wallace (D-AL)/Governor John B Connally (D-TX) 133 electoral votes
Senator Eugene McCarthy (FL-MN)/Senator George McGovern (I-SD) 35 electoral votes

Connally would never ran with Wallace.

Any other reasonable runningmate then?

That would fit... The only real shift I think I'd see would be Texas and Michigan, and I think Texas could still go Wallace, although be more of a 40% margin.

Just a note, Nixon's state of residence in 1968 was California.  In the 1972 election Nixon's state of residence was New York.

I beg to differ. One of Nixon's potential VP choices in 1968 was Robert Finch. He was at the time Lieutenant Governor of California. The reason it was possible without losing the potential of getting California's electoral votes was that Nixon lived in New York at the time. He had already been living there since before 1968, working for a New York law firm.

If George Wallace was the Democrats nominee the election result would
VicePresident Richard Nixon/ Governor Spiro Agnew .... 85
Governor George Wallace/ Senator George McGovern ... 445

To get this amount I combined Wallace's numbers and Humphrey's numbers in 1968.

Yes, because Wallace, the Southern Segregationist is guaranteed the Northern liberal vote in places like Massachusets, New York, Minnesota, and Washington DC!

Having the anti-war  liberal democrat George McGovern was supposed to undo the damage in the north from George Wallace's segregationist views .  I know that McGovern would have been wary to join Wallace, but I doubt if he would have supported Nixon.

Wary is not quite the word I would use to describe how McGovern would feel about supporting Wallace.  The word abhorrence comes to mind.

Yeah, and I believe McGovern would rather run third party or not endorse anybody than have to choose between those two choices.
