Ran a computer v. computer 1968 with the same candidates, but with 21% unemployment. The results were... unexpected.







Nixon's best states were Idaho, Pennsylvania and New York with 40% each.
Humphrey did best in D.C. with 57%, also getting 49% in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
Wallace's best state was Alabama with 69%, followed by Georgia, Mississippi and Louisiana with 64% each.
