From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1964 United States presidential election in Oregon took place on November 3, 1964, as part of the 1964 United States presidential election. Voters chose six[2] representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.
Oregon was won by incumbent President Lyndon B. Johnson (D–Texas), with 63.72% of the popular vote, against Senator Barry Goldwater (R–Arizona), with 35.96% of the popular vote.[3][4] As of the 2020 presidential election[update], this is the last election in which the following counties voted for a Democratic presidential candidate: Baker, Douglas, Grant, Harney, Klamath, Lake, Polk, Sherman, Umatilla, Union, Wallowa, and Yamhill.[5] Furthermore, Oregon would not vote for a Democratic presidential candidate again until 1988. This also marks the last time that a Democratic presidential nominee has carried a majority of Oregon's counties.
