Swing Missouri and New Jersey for sure. Kennedy would have won over more ethnic catholics and blue collar whites. He simply appealed to them in a way HHH never could.

The ticket would be RFK/Southerner (Gore, Smathers, Yarborough)

And he would have won many of the midwestern states, though he would have done worse in the south. Plug for my TL dealing with this

Kennedy looses Maine due to Muskie not being on the ticket. He probably looses Texas unless he picks Yarborough. He picks up several Rust Belt states as he was immensely popular among blue collar whites.
