Mondale wins the 1980 election as Carter's replacement, mostly due to a sympathy bump following his predecessor's tragic death

Former Governor Ronald Reagan of California/Former CIA Director George H. W. Bush of Texas: 239

January 30, 1981: In a very freak coincidence, former Governor and 1980 Republican presidential nominee Ronald Reagan slipped in his bathroom and broke his neck to death. Never before the two major party nominees dies in such a quick succession.
