Interesting, but I wonder why Schweiker (of Pennsylvania) caused Mississippi to go for Ford instead of Reagan?

I'm not sure how many votes the Mississippi delegation had, but Ford's margin of victory was only 117 votes.  Perhaps if Reagan had picked a more mainstream running mate instead of the liberal Schweiker, he probably could have pulled it off.  Schweiker didn't help him at all in the Northeast anyway, which is the only place where he would have helped.
