It didn't happen in 1948, but newspapers during this election prematurely announced the victory in the Wisconsin primary of former basketball player Mo Udall. Frank Church and Jerry Brown led a movement called "anyone but" this election's winner. The loser of this election blundered by claiming that "there is no Soviet domination of Eastern Europe," overshadowing his opponent's admission in a (*) Playboy interview that he committed adultery in his heart. This election marked the last time that a Democrat won all the states in the Deep South. The incumbent going into this election, who never recovered from an unpopular pardon, lost to a dark horse candidate from Georgia. For 10 points, name this election which led to Jimmy Carter becoming president.
