George Wallace vs. Richard Nixon

[Continential]

Let's say that George Wallace becomes the nominee in 1972, and how would he do in the south and would there have been a African-American third party candidate or will African Americans vote Wallace or Nixon?

Hypothetical polls showed Nixon just barely ahead of Wallace among southern blacks.

[Fuzzy Bear]

As with 1976, if George Wallace became the Democratic nominee for President, the liberal wing of the Democratic Party would have a candidate ready to run as a third party candidate.  Indeed, some NORTHERN states would likely name faithless electors, or electors plainly pledged to another liberal Democrat.
