While McGovern lost badly (he only carried DC)...

Yup, you're right. DC and Mass.-- and Massachusetts he only carried by about
1%.

(When Mondale ran, he only carried (IIRC), Mass., and his home state of
Minnesota, and only carried that by about 3,000 votes out of something like
2.1 million (and it's said that 50,000 dead people voted in that one, too.)
