Nixon got 18% of the black vote in 1972, and Ford got 16% in 1976. Pretty stunning numbers. Is it because McGovern was too liberal for the conservative black voters while blacks were turned off by Carter being a governor from the Deep South?

1976 was the last election in which a Republican got at least 15% of the black vote.
