In Alabama, voters voted for electors individually instead of as a slate, as in the other states. Twenty-two electors were on the ballot, 11 Republicans and 11 Democrats. Voters could vote for up to eleven candidates. As a result of a state primary, the Democratic Party had a mixed slate of electors, five being pledged to Kennedy and the remaining six being unpledged.[2][3] The highest vote for a presidential elector was 324,050 votes for Frank M. Dixon, who was unpledged; the highest vote for an elector pledged to Kennedy was 318,303 for C. G. Allen, and the highest vote for a Republican elector was 237,981 for Cecil Durham, which was fewer than the vote for any Democratic elector.[2] As a result, six unpledged electors and five electors pledged to Kennedy were elected. All six elected unpledged electors cast their vote for Byrd.[4]

Varying methods have been used to break down the vote into Kennedy and unpledged votes. One method is to take the 318,303 votes as Kennedy votes and the 324,050 votes as unpledged votes, giving a total much higher than the actual votes cast.[5] Another is to take the 318,303 votes as Kennedy votes and the remainder (5,747 votes) as unpledged votes.[6] A third is to split the 324,050 in the proportion of 5⁄11 to 6⁄11, following the proportion of electors, giving 147,295 votes for Kennedy and 176,755 for unpledged electors.[7] In all cases, Republican candidate Richard Nixon of California, then Vice President of the United States, has 237,981 votes. If the last method is used, it means that Nixon won the popular vote in Alabama; it also means that he won the popular vote nationally.[3][7] Congressional Quarterly calculated the popular vote in this manner at the time of the 1960 election.[3] This remains the last election in which Lee County, Shelby County, Baldwin County, and Mobile County voted for a Democratic presidential candidate.[8]

Results Unpledged electors Kennedy 50 60 60 70 70 80 80 90 Nixon 50 60 60 70 In Alabama voters voted for electors individually instead of as a slate as in the other states Twenty two electors were on the ballot 11 Republicans and 11 Democrats Voters could vote for up to eleven candidates As a result of a state primary the Democratic Party had a mixed slate of electors five being pledged to Kennedy and the remaining six being unpledged 2 3 The highest vote for a presidential elector was 324 050 votes for Frank M Dixon who was unpledged the highest vote for an elector pledged to Kennedy was 318 303 for C G Allen and the highest vote for a Republican elector was 237 981 for Cecil Durham which was fewer than the vote for any Democratic elector 2 As a result six unpledged electors and five electors pledged to Kennedy were elected All six elected unpledged electors cast their vote for Byrd 4 Varying methods have been used to break down the vote into Kennedy and unpledged votes One method is to take the 318 303 votes as Kennedy votes and the 324 050 votes as unpledged votes giving a total much higher than the actual votes cast 5 Another is to take the 318 303 votes as Kennedy votes and the remainder 5 747 votes as unpledged votes 6 A third is to split the 324 050 in the proportion of 5 11 to 6 11 following the proportion of electors giving 147 295 votes for Kennedy and 176 755 for unpledged electors 7 In all cases Republican candidate Richard Nixon of California then Vice President of the United States has 237 981 votes If the last method is used it means that Nixon won the popular vote in Alabama it also means that he won the popular vote nationally 3 7 Congressional Quarterly calculated the popular vote in this manner at the time of the 1960 election 3 This remains the last election in which Lee County Shelby County Baldwin County and Mobile County voted for a Democratic presidential candidate 8 Contents 1 Results 1 1 Results by county 2 See also 3 Notes 4
