The 1964 United States presidential election in Alabama was held on November 3, 1964. Alabama voters chose ten representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for President and Vice-President. In Alabama, voters voted for electors individually instead of as a slate, as in the other states. The slate of Republican electors pledged to presidential nominee Barry Goldwater of Arizona easily defeated the slate of unpledged Democratic electors. Incumbent Democratic president Lyndon B. Johnson was widely opposed by the conservative Democratic establishment in the Deep South for being too liberal on racial issues, so the local party chose to run a slate of electors who wouldn’t be obligated to support Johnson. With his victory, Goldwater became the first Republican since 1872 to carry Alabama, as well as the first Republican to ever carry the state without winning the presidency.
