How much of the white vote in Mississippi do you think the Democratic presidential nominee received in Mississippi, 1968 onward?
Most of these are my estimates, but the last three are from exit polls I've seen.
1968 (Humphrey): 4% 1972 (McGovern): 6% 1976 (Carter): 35% 1980 (Carter): 31% 1984 (Mondale): 14% 1988 (Dukakis): 16% 1992 (Clinton): 19% 1996 (Clinton): 21% 2000 (Gore): 16% 2004 (Kerry): 14% 2008 (Obama): 11% 2012 (Obama): 10%
These are my best estimates based on what I know. Information on the black vote and turnout would be helpful. Does anyone know about these elections? It might be interesting to see data on elections involving Carter and Clinton. I doubt that Carter ever reached 40%, or that Clinton obtained even 25% of Mississippi whites.
