Yeah, the numbers here are a little skewed. If you look at Dewey's percentage it's almost unchanged (in fact, he lost slightly in 1948 compared to 1944). Truman did worse than FDR nationally because of Wallace and Thurmond, but they are largely local existences, i.e. the Deep South+New York. Beyond that we can expect Truman to do about as well as FDR and there is nothing strange about him doing better in many states.
