The 1968 United States presidential election in Pennsylvania took place on November 5, 1968 throughout all 50 states and D.C., which was part of the 1968 United States presidential election. Voters chose 29 representatives, or electors to the Electoral College, who voted for President and Vice President.
Pennsylvania voted for the Democratic nominee, Vice President Hubert Humphrey, over the Republican nominee, former Vice President Richard Nixon. Humphrey won Pennsylvania by a margin of 3.57%. A third party candidate, former Alabama Governor George Wallace, played a significant role by winning 7.97% of the vote. This marked the first election since 1948 that a presidential candidate won the national election without carrying Pennsylvania. That did not happen again until 2000. This was also the first election that a Republican candidate was elected without carry the state.
