What happens to Nixon in 1967?

Nixon was facing impeachment in 1967 due to allegations of ballot box stuffing in the 1964 election, giving favors in exchange for gifts, tax fraud, and insurance fraud.  He resigned before the trial would start.  In 1968, a federal grand jury would find him guilty and he would be sentenced to 44 years in prison.  He would, however, only serve 29 days with seven years parole. 

Vice President Lodge and Nixon were not close.  Lodge would refuse to pardon him, despite calls for it from high ranking Republicans.  Lodge would lose his party's nomination during the 1968 primaries.

President
Senate Majority Leader Lyndon Johnson (D-TX)

Vice President
Governor Frank Lausche (D-OH)

With his popularity ratings hovering in the upper 30's, President Johnson announced he would retire at the end of his term.  Though speculation centered around the President's rapidly declining health.  Johnson would suffer a fatal heart attack on June 11, 1961.

1960 Results

Governor Nelson Rockefeller (R-NY)

Vice President, 1969-71
Senator Richard Nixon (R-CA)

Vice President, 1971-73
Governor John Volpe (R-MA)

Several public differences of opinion lead to the resignation of Vice President Richard Nixon in late 1971.  Some began to speculate that Nixon would mount and Independent bid for the White House, but he quickly announced he would challenge the incumbent President for renomination.  President Rockefeller chooses retiring Massachusetts Governor John Volpe to replace Nixon.  Nixon goes on to historically defeat a sitting President for renomination in 1972.

1972 Results
(R) Former Vice Pres. Richard Nixon/Rep. John Ashbrook:  170 EV

1988 Results
(R) Vice Pres. John Danforth/former HUD Sec. Elizabeth Dole:  269 EV
(D) Gov. Tom Bradley/Sen. Sam Nunn:  269 EV

The election of 1988 saw the closest election in American history.  Neither candidate won a majority in the Electoral College, although Governor Bradley held a slim .08% national lead.  The election went to the House of Representatives where Democrats held a razor-slim 219-216 lead over Republicans.  The House voted 218 for Bradley to 217 for Danforth, thus electing the nation's first African American President and the third straight President from California.

1989-91
President
Governor Tom Bradley (D-CA)

Vice President
Senator Sam Nunn (D-GA)

Almost three years into his Presidency, Tom Bradley suffered a heart attack and died on Christmas Eve 1991.  Vice President Sam Nunn succeeded him and chose Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton as Vice President. 

1991-93
President
Vice President Sam Nunn (D-GA)

Vice President
Governor Bill Clinton (D-AR)

President Nunn addressed the nation on January 4, 1992, to announce he would not seek a full term as President and expressed his desire to return to the Senate in the near future.  He would indeed be elected to his old Senate seat in 1996.

1992 Results

(R) Gov. Bruce Benson/former Sen. Paula Hawkins:  250 EV
(I) Former Gov. Roy Romer/former SBA Regional Dir. Susan Collins:  35 EV

The 1996 election for President became divisive with entry of former Democratic Colorado Governor Roy Romer's entry as an Independent.  Many saw his candidacy as a spoiler to that of President Clinton's.  On election night, the Clinton/Kerrey ticket won 253 Electoral Votes and 44% of the vote to Colorado Governor Bruce Benson's 250 Electoral Votes and 43% popular vote.  Republicans controlled Congress at the time, with a large majority of Independents at 19.  With the help of the Independent caucus, the House voted to reelect Bill Clinton, giving him 222 votes.

In 1999, the Senate impeached the President Clinton and he became the first American President to be removed from office.  He had been charged and found guilty of lying under oath.  Vice President Kerrey assumed the office and chose recently retired longtime Senator John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts to fill the vacancy.  Kennedy announced he would serve only as a placeholder until the next election.

1999-2005

Vice President Bob Kerrey (D-NE)

Vice President, 1999-2001

2000 Results
(D) Pres. Bob Kerrey/Gov. Mary Landrieu:  275 EV
(R) Gov. Tom Ridge/House Speaker Newt Gingrich:  263 EV

President Bob Kerrey announced his retirement at the end of his term in 2005, citing his frustration in dealing with a Republican controlled Congress.  The biggest accomplishment of the Kerrey Administration, however, had been the granting of statehood to Guam and Puerto Rico, thus giving them voting members in the House, two Senators, and Electoral Votes at the Presidential level.

2004 Results
(D) Vice Pres. Mary Landrieu/Sen. Jay Rockefeller:  270 EV
(R) Gov. John Engler/former Sen. Jack Kemp:  274 EV
