Remember in 1970, just two years into Nixon's first term, with an unpopular war and unemployment on the rise, GOP actually gained two Senate seats.

Senator's terms are six years, so six years before 1970 was 1964. Were the two lost 1970 Senate seats guys who were first elected in 1964?

I leafletted for the GOP Presidential candidate in 1964. It wasn't pretty on election night.
