There are people changing beliefs/party loyalties all the time. I think most of these voters would fit in that group.

I would imagine a 1968 Wallace/1972 McGovern voter would be much more of a challenge.

Those Alabama counties were in all likelihood not the result of voters changing their choice but new black voters who had not yet gotten used to being able to vote. They were disenfranchised before the CRA after all.
I bet there are quite a few Dukakis/Bush counties in the plains/rural midwest.

ssuperflash, I was talking about 1968/1972. Sorry for getting off topic though.
