Gone Fishin'
In 1964, there was a write in campaign for Henry Cabot Lodge jr. w.i he gets the nomination in 64 or even tries in 68.what would be the butterflies?
 
Well, in 1964, he would do a bit better than Goldwater in the popular vote maybe, but George Wallace or some other Dixiecrat would run a breakaway ticket in the South, so he wouldn't win any of those states. On the flip side, Lodge could probably win Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire, and maybe a couple states in the mountain west.
