Great map !! Where did you get it? I assume it is "Electoral College, 1976. Red=Carter"

About the Carter-Ford election map. Note two things:
A change: California went for Ford. along with Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.
Remains the Same: Thank God, Virginia held the line (in the Blue). Not taken in by Carter.
Nonetheless, I couldn't believe my ears when Ford said that he didn't think Poland considered itself dominated.
An interesting irony about Poland:
On the one hand there were the Russian divisions on their throat.
On the other hand it was prescient. Because it was Poland (Gdansk shipyard union, John Paul II, and Leck Walesa) who began the overthrow of the Soviets.
(note they fought with the RAF against the Nazis and broke the ultra secret code.)
