The main reason that john f. Kennedy selected Lyndon Johnson, a Protestant Texan, who provided geographical and religious balance to a ticket led by a Catholic Northeasterner, but many liberals did not like the pick.

Kennedy won the 1960 presidential election for two reasons. Kennedy's strong and energetic personality and his reaction to Dr. Kennedy's arrest. Martin Luther King Jr.

Kennedy defeated incumbent Vice President Richard Nixon, the Republican candidate. This was the first election in which his 50 states participated and the last in which the District of Columbia did not participate, marking the first time Alaska and Hawaii participated.

john f. Kennedy was nominated by the Democratic Party on July 15, 1960, National Convention, and nominated Senator Lyndon B. Johnson as his running mate. In the November 8, 1960, general election, he defeated incumbent Vice President Richard Nixon and United Nations Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge, his junior.
