I don't think it would make much difference one way or the other.

Without Agnew on the ticket, Nixon loses ground to Wallace in the upper South. The AIP ticket picks up Tennessee at the very least and potentially both of the Carolinas.

Wallace probably gets 16 percent in this case. Humphrey wins popular vote, Nixon has either a bare majority or a high electoral pularity and Wallace is the first third party to get 10 million votes, and if extreme butterflies happen, and no perot 1992 if Humphrey gets elected, the only third party to do so

Did Agnew really help Nixon much?  They even lost Maryland, Agnew's home state.
