Question about Hubert Humphrey

[Lincoln Republican]

If John F Kennedy had picked northern liberal Democratic Senator Hubert H Humphrey of Minnesota as his Vice Presidential running mate in 1960, instead of the more moderate Senator Lyndon B Johnson of Texas, would Kennedy still have won the election?

Please discuss.

Thank you.

Nixon/Lodge in 1960

That's a lot of electoral votes and popular votes you show going to Robertson and Faubus third party.  More than Teddy Roosevelt got in 1912, 88 EV, 17% PV, and more than George Wallace got in 1968, 46 EV, 9% PV.  That would easily make this 1960 third party the most successful third party in U.S. history.  Nonetheless a very interesting map.  It could have happened I suppose.

In your map, JFK would still become President, as I believe the Democrats controlled the House in 1960.  Correct me is I'm wrong.
