My History Can Beat Up Your Politics

Did Nixon Win the Popular Vote in 1960? And Other Stories


Listen Later

In this episode we look at an enduring mystery, one that didn't matter too much in the 1960 election but has since taken on significance. Could it be that Kennedy lost, and Nixon won, the popular vote nationally in 1960. We looked at it a decade ago, and at that time MHCBUYP declared that Richard Nixon may have won the pop vote.  Now, we think it's complicated. But still possible. This, plus the "Gumps of History" and other listener questions.
