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

I don't know if South Dakota would go for McGovern, but it's a reasonable map besides.

Connally would never ran with Wallace.

Any other reasonable runningmate then?

Lester Maddox, maybe?

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.

Meaning that Michigan goes for Nixon?

I also think that Georgia might vote more heavily for Wallace.
