Elected President

Richard Nixon
Republican

Amidst a nationwide landslide defeat especially felt in the South, McGovern won only two counties in North Carolina, neither of which have voted for a Republican presidential candidate since the Fourth Party System era: Orange County in the Research Triangle region, home of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and majority-Black Northampton County in the northeast of the state.[1] Even in these counties, where most Democratic candidates receive over sixty percent of the vote (and where Walter Mondale in 1984 would still win by double digits), McGovern won by less than five points.[2] 78% of white voters supported Nixon, while only 20% supported McGovern.[3][4]

1972 was the first election in which a presidential candidate received more than one million votes in North Carolina, and remains the best Republican presidential performance in its history. This is also the last election to date in which Bertie County, Durham County, Edgecombe County, Halifax County, Hertford County, Hoke County, Warren County, or Washington County voted for the Republican candidate.[5]
