Imagine some young Bundist did not get arrested. He is very upset by all that has happened.
He may well not believe that Germany was really losing and put it down to propaganda.
He discovers that FDR is doing a campaign tour.
I saw footage of that event. In part it was shown to illustrate just how much Franklin was putting on an act of a fit man.
Now I suspect it would not have been that hard to get hold of a gun.
So FDR is murdered in October 1944.
I am guessing
1) Truman becomes the top of the ticket
2) Henry Wallace gets to be President until January 1945
3) Eleanor Roosevelt becomes the VP candidate.
4) Democrats win at least as easily as in OTL.
