How would 1948 have gone without Henry Wallace and Strom Thurmond? Would Truman's victory be more comfortable in such a scenario?

Probably Truman would have won New York (Wallace took enough votes to give a narrow majority to Dewey) and some states of the Deep South, although the latter were strongly opposed to his civil rights policies.
