Wallace suddenly drops his challenges, giving a Curt explanation about it being for the good of the country. Rumors however leak that a Kennedy campaign official offered his party a pick at a supreme Court seat if they dropped the challenge. Both sides deny this rumor however.
Since Wallace requested recounts in Arkansas and NC, I think that we should flip them to RFK and flip one of RFK's states to Nixon
My suggestion is flip California.Since Wallace requested recounts in Arkansas and NC, I think that we should flip them to RFK and flip one of RFK's states to Nixon

Who would be a better Speaker candidate for them?Boggs wouldn't go along with the AIP. He supported the Voting Rights Act and the Louisiana Legislature had to redistrict the state to keep him from getting voted out of office.
