As we all know, Frank Church, the Senator from Idaho, managed to win the Democratic primaries in 1976 against a stacked list of competitors in a massive upset. He then went on to win the 1976 election against Gerald Ford, in a convincing victory.

But let's say that Church fizzles out, some other Democrat takes the nomination, Jerry Brown or a southern Democrat maybe.

What happens to the 1976 election? Would the Democrats still win?
