Based on returns from a number of areas including San Francisco, I'd say gays and lesbians split their votes in 1976, perhaps showing a slight preference for Ford over Carter (with perhaps a larger than average share going to McCarthy). I'd say gays voted near the national average through 1964, then broke for Humphrey in '68 with almost none going for Wallace, then split their vote in 1972. In Michigan, I suspect Gov. Milliken (R) won the vast majority of gay votes against pro-life Democrat William Fitzgerald in 1978, based on returns from Ann Arbor and East Lansing.
