I made a map for it and the topic was deleted, so here it is again. The map shows Carter winning by not nearly as much as Obama.

I assume you have Carter doing so poorly just because of his age? because I think if 1976 Carter had ran in 2008 he would've done better than Obama, especially in the South.

Why keep that map in mind but not the 1976 map?

Hence why I said 1976 Carter.

I was trying to counter the argument that everyone stopped supporting Carter between 1976 and 1980.

True, and I think against a more moderate Republican Carter would have at least held the Deep South, as all these states were close and Reagan more or less used dog whistles to appeal to white Southerners who otherwise would've been Carter voters.

Even if you look at county by county in 1980, Carter's best region was the South

There is no way he would have won GA in 2008. Take the 2012 Obama map.

I don't see why an evangelical moderate former Governor of Georgia wouldn't win the state in 2008 when Obama only lost it by 5%.

Carter: 481
McCain: 57
