Explanation:

The 1964 presidential election in the United States took place on November 3, 1964. The Democratic Party candidate was incumbent President Lyndon B. Johnson, who had moved to the White House only a year earlier, after the assassination of his predecessor John F. Kennedy. Senator Barry Goldwater stood for the Republican Party.

The main themes of the election campaign in the course of the civil rights movement were the civil rights of African Americans, the beginning of American involvement in Vietnam and the international role of the United States in the Cold War. The question of the civil rights of African Americans had a very strong weight in this election: Johnson advocated the sanction of the Civil Rights Act proposed by Kennedy, while Goldwater was a supporter of racial segregation.

Lyndon B. Johnson won the election very clearly. Only in a few southern states and his home state of Arizona, where Johnson's friendly policy towards African Americans was rejected, did Goldwater manage to get a majority vote. In all other states, the incumbent won the majority of the voters, and was re-elected for a full term as US president.
