Background

Alright so in OTL Wallace survived (barely) getting shot 5 times by Arthur Bremner. Let's say in TTL the bullets' trajectories are a bit different and they end up striking Wallace's vital organs. For the sake of the scenario let's say Wallace is mortally wounded and is dead by the time he reaches the hospital.

My biggest question is this: How will this affect the 1972 Democratic Primaries?

-Who will Wallace's delegates go to? Who benefits most from Wallace's untimely death? Will it affect McGovern's chances of winning the nomination?
