What are good examples of GOP'ers who supported integration who hailed from the South, who ran against segregationist Democrats.
I know Winthrop Rockefeller was an example who was governor after Orval Faubus in Arkansas.
Most Southern GOP'ers at the time though were against civil rights and used it as a campaign issue, like Jesse Helms and John Tower, putting them against the national GOP platform.
What are other good examples like Winthrop Rockefeller and how common were they in relation to the others?
