1960 Election Both JFK and Nixon had similar positions on policy issues, but two factors helped JFK immensely: 1. Television 2. Civil Rights JFK won by .17% of popular vote 303 to 219 in electoral college First election that included all 50 states

JFK and Civil Rights MLK jr and 33 others were arrested at a segregated lunch counter in Atlanta Others were released but MLK was sentenced to months of hard labor for a “traffic violation” Eisenhower administration refused to intervene and Nixon took no public position JFK called MLKs wife and RFK persuaded the judge to let him go.

JFK and Civil Rights This allowed JFK to carry key states in Midwest and South

Ticket out the door Compare the 1960 election to the 2012 election. How were they similar? How were they different? How big of an influence does the media have on others?
