Election of 1960

Presidential Election Season is winding down! And while 2024 promises to be one for the history books, we decided to check out some other election years that are already in there. Today, we focus on the Election of 1960, to follow up our Election of 1892 episode.  It's Vice President Nixon vs. Senator John F Kennedy in a razor thin result, far closer than most people realize. And highlights the integrity, at least in 1960, of one Richard M. Nixon, who conceded this exceptionally close race for the good of the country.

Join the Rebeccas as they dive in deep to this election with a whole list of "firsts" and one that has entirely too many similarities to the 2024 election!
