My question though is what if Nixon wins the nomination and picks Reagan as his running mate. Let's say Reagan doesn't run in the primaries and Nixon is the nominee.

You're right I'm changing it to Nixon/Rockefeller.

After Richard Nixon lost the elction in the house in 1968 while wining the popular vote by  narrow margin, the seeks a rematch in 1972. As he ended Vietnam, HHH is a poluar president. However, Nixon attacks the President for the situation in Vietnam, as the North continues to attack South Vietnam.



President Hubert Humphrey/Vice President Ed Muskie 378 EV. - 55.4%
Former Vice President Richard Nixon/Governor Nelson Rockefeller 160 EV. - 42.9%

New York goes democratic by a 51-49%-margin.

Interesting because this map looks similar to a Democratic landslide today.

Well , Texas and Indiana are republican states. Texas might become a toss-up by 2020 or so, but not earlier.
