Would Nelson Rockefeller have united both the New England wing of the Republican Party along with the Libertarian wing? How would he have helped Goldwater?

Did you learn nothing from the lecture you got last week from the moderator about posting several very similar scenarios in a row all at once?

I think that Rockefeller would have helped Goldwater carry some of the traditionally Republican states in the Northeast and Midwest, but Rockefeller would have turned off voters in the South due to his strong support for civil rights, thus causing the National States Rights ticket of John Kasper and J. B. Stoner to win several states in the Deep South.

Here is what the map would look like:

Presdident Lyndon Johnson (D-TX)/Senator Hubert Humphrey (D-MN): 464 Electoral Votes
Senator Barry Goldwater (R-AZ)/Governor Nelson Rockefeller (R-NY): 39 Electoral Votes
Mr. John Kasper (National States Rights-NY)/Mr. J. B. Stoner (National States Rights-GA): 35 Electoral Votes

Dallas ain't even a moderator, bro. He's just "the guy".

Some people chime in whenever they want to and it gets annoying.
