Well good and bad here. The good is that unions are now in more power. The bad is that it's the coal unions so environmentalism might have a rougher time, we shall see. Also love how somehow Dick Lamm and Don Blankenship are involved, incredible crossover.

Oh boy that should be fun. Knowing you, it will be a third party that spread to other states but also loses to Hunter S Thompson's Freak Power party.

why use a third party?

EDIT: changed the map to more properly reflect my idea for the box, which was lamm getting destroyed in coal country for his strike busting + environmentalism. i flipped a few more western counties to him and kept the margin. lets just say he wins a few more votes where it counts here (denver area)​

So is environmentalism a bit more bi-partisan ITTL?

Republican: 44 -5 = 39
Independent: 1 +1 = 2
National: 0 +1 = 1
Conservative (N.Y.) 1 +0 = 1

*Asterisk denotes Democrat/Independent endorsed by Wallace/National Party
**While Wallace originally planned to endorse Prentiss Walker as a "Wallace Independent", hoping to scare Eastland into endorsing him, John Bell Williams' loyalty to Eastland and the Mississippi Democratic Party's prompt endorsement of the Wallace/Williams ticket led to him backing Eastland, although with some reservations. Walker still receives a higher total than OTL, as many National Party voters simply reject both the Republicans and Democrats entirely.
***Red Betha, the 1970 American Independent Party candidate for governor, was chosen by the National Party in the hopes of making his re-election more stressful after Thurmond refused to endorse Wallace in 1968 and 1972. Betha, with Wallace's endorsement, improved massively over his 1970 total, and, as Thurmond's segregationist cred fell apart due to the revelation of his black daughter, along with the Democrats picking a more competitive candidate, Betha managed to pull off a bare-bones victory with 35% of the vote.


1973 Elections:
Senate:
ME-S: Robert A.G. Monks (R) def. George Mitchell (D) - R Gain from D
SD-S: Bill Dougherty (D) def. Frank Henderson (R) - D Hold
WI-S: Douglas LaFollette (D) def. William Dyke (R) - D Hold

Senate Totals:
Democratic 57 -1 = 56

I like that Dick Lamm is the type of person who could be both the strike busting scum of the Earth or the leader of a Post-Means 88’ Libertarian Party that makes it a weird ‘Left’ Libertarian thing.

Dick Lamm is a man of contrasts.

During the year of 2008, a sensational bout of weirdness entered the atmosphere, propelled by Obama's Indiana victory, that was pushed by two musical acts, Viper and Bull of Heaven. Viper had originally started out semi-serious, releasing albums about picking up "cutie pies" and producing a underground album from a woman who's pussy he wanted, but in 2008 released You'll Cowards Don't Even Smoke Crack. 5 years later, YCDESC was found on the internet and then routinely memed, as Viper, despite being the original cloud rap musician (as far as we know), had low production quality and even worse graphics. Viper, however, took this in stride, releasing about 400 albums in a single year, most of which were blatant copies of themselves named shit like "Cops Can't Read". Bull of Heaven on the other hand, also started out serious, but even as they devolved into a shitty meme band for having albums that were 4789088780282933.9999^34 years long, just seemed to take themselves more and more seriously, or at least as seriously as a drone band can take itself. This divide is very interesting and it begs the question, what if they formed a drone-rap band....

I honestly thought Viper was that guy who improvises dance routines to popular songs in the mirror.
