NEVADA (3)

Nixon took Nevada. He had 47 per cent to Humphrey's 40, with Wallace getting 13.

NEW HAMPSHIRE (4)

New Hampshire returned to its traditional position as a Republican state. Richard Nixon's victory carried veteran Sen. Norris Cotton and the two incumbent Republican congressmen to victory. Cotton, one of the most conservative members of the Senate, won handily over popular Gov. John King. The split in the Democratic party following McCarthy's presidential win there is the main reason for King's defeat, eace candidate for Congress David C. Hoeh, was swamped by incumbent congressman James C. Cleveland. Hoeh was Eugene McCarthy's campaign manager and led the New Hampshire delegation to the Democratic National Convention. In New Hampshire's second district incumbent Republican Louis Wyman won a tough race with James Keefe, former administrative assistant to Sen. Thomas McIntyre. Keefe had strong support from the Democratic organization but was still unable to buck the Republican tide.

NEW JERSEY (17)

New Jersey, expected to give Wallace substantial blue-collar support, and Nixon a majority of from 100,000 to 300,000 votes, turned out to be a cliff-hanger. Wallace ran poorly, with only about ten per cent of the vote, and Humphrey support materialized in the last week of the campaign. The state eventually went to Nixon, however, by about 50,000 votes early this morning.

NEW MEXICO (4)

As in many other western states, Nixon won. He took the Land of Enchantment's 4 electoral votes with roughly 51 per cent to Humphrey's 41 and Wallace's 8. In the gubernatorial race, Fabian Chavez and Gov. David Cargo were neck and neck in one of the tightest races of the night.

NEW YORK (43)

Despite Hubert Humphrey's victory, Democratic Senate candidate Paul O'Dwyer was swamped by veteran Sen. Jacob K. Javits. O'Dwyer, who was nominated as a result of the large McCarthy vote in the primary, did not have the support of the regular Democratic machine and was never given much of a chance against the popular Javits. The New York House delegation remained largely the same but several races provided interest. In New York City Mrs. Shirley Chisholm, a Democrat, became the first Negro woman ever elected to Congress when she defeated James Farmer, former head of Core. Allard K. Lowenstein, another McCarthy candidate, won a House seat in the Fifth District in Nassau County, Adam Clayton Powell, the Harlem Congressman, who was excluded from the 90th Congress on charges of misusing federal funds was re-elected overwhelmingly, setting up another possible challenge to his seating in Congress.

NORTH DAKOTA (4)

Nixon, Milton Young, Republican incumbent, won re-election over Herschel Lashkowitz in a lackluster race.

NORTH CAROLINA (13)

Nixon won North Carolina early in the evening as another Southern state turned in disappointing returns for Wallace. Lt. Gov. Robert W. Scott beat back a strong challenge by Rep. James C. Gardner, and Harvard Law School graduate Sam J. Ervin won re-election to his pereenial Senate seat. In the House, Republicans appear to have picked up one seat, leaving the North Carolina delegation at 7-4, still in favor of the Democrats. One of the victorious Republicans was ex-Cardinal pitcher Vinegar Bend Mizell.
