Mom: Richard Nixon (R-CA)
Oldest Aunt: Richard Nixon (R-CA)
Oldest Uncle: Richard Nixon (R-CA) (Born about a month and a half after the 1960 elections)
Youngest Aunt: Barry Goldwater (R-AZ)
Youngest Uncle: Hubert Humphrey (D-MN)
Grandma: Alf Landon (R-KS) (Born two days after the election)

You realize you used the wrong color?
