Can't tell exactly the shade of RI, but it looks like it pretty much decided the election.  (Or NJ, but that's not exciting...)

There's another argument in favor of giving it to Sinclair: the other candidates that received votes are clearly closer to him ideologically than to Ike. It's fair to assume that Sinclair would have won a head-to-head matchup.

While I'm sure that's true about the Hass voter, I wouldn't be too sure about the Kefauver voters picking a socialist over a moderate war hero.
As the sole Hass voter, Its somewhat likely i would have voted Ike actually.
