Amazing how many there are. Except for huge landslides, 60% states were fairly rare in the second half of the 20th century. Kennedy had Georgia, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island against Nixon's Kansas and Nebraska. Carter had Arkansas and Georgia against Ford's Utah.

It's more amazing that McCain lost the popular vote nearly as badly as Dukakis, yet managed to get far more electoral votes AND break 60% in six states.
