President Averroes Nix (D-NY) - 242 EVs (31.9% of the PV)
Governor Goldwater (R-WA) - 231 EVs (33.2% of the PV)
Senator TNF (I-KY) - 55 EVs (22.5% of the PV)
Former Rep. Jack Enderman (L-FL) - 10 EVs (12.4% of the PV)
Excessive vote splitting from both the right and left causes a major split in the PV, with no candidate getting over a third of the vote. The election goes to the house. Former Representative Jack Enderman does not qualify for the house vote, due to placing fourth, and so withdraws from the race. After no majorities on the first and second house ballots, Senator TNF withdraws and endorses President Nix, but several key delegations tip towards Goldwater, giving him the presidency.
Governor Goldwater (R-WA) - 22
President Averroes Nix (D-NY) -12
Senator TNF (I-KY) - 10
Abstain/No Vote - 6
Nix and TNF manage to clinch several delegations from Republican-majority states, such as Pennsylvania and North Carolina.
Governor Goldwater (R-WA) - 24
President Averroes Nix (D-NY) -11
Senator TNF (I-KY) - 11
Abstain/No Vote - 4
Goldwater picks off the North Carolina delegation from Nix, as well as the deadlocked Ohio delegation. TNF picks up the deadlocked Maine delegation.
Governor Goldwater (R-WA) - 28
President Averroes Nix (D-NY) - 19
Abstain/No Vote - 3
Despite Nix maintaining crossover support from several delegations, the withdrawal of TNF flips several states to Goldwater, pulling him over the crucial 26 vote line into the White House.
