Does John Anderson run (as an Independent) in this scenario? Also, does Brooke ask people if they are better off than they were four years ago (like Reagan did)?

Anderson and Brooke are both moderate-liberal Republicans, so I don't see an Anderson run. A third party on the right would be more likely.

326 - 212

Brooke wins his home New England, and the Carter 'malaise' makes Brooke competitive in much of the country, and he wins just over half the vote in the plains and mountain states. Brooke wins about 2/3 of the black vote and becomes the first Republican to win DC. However, Carter is strong in the South and is the more popular candidate among many social conservatives as well as economically left-liberal Democrats, leading to a close popular vote.
