Best Answer

John Kennedy and Richard Nixon were the two major party candidates for President in 1960.

Another answer

In 1960 Richard M. Nixon and John F. Kennedy ran for president. More people in Illinois voted for Nixon than voted for Kennedy. However, far more tombstones in Chicago voted for Kennedy than voted for Nixon. As a result, Kennedy carried Illinois and won the election.

In this past presidential election fewer tombstones voted for Obama. In New York State, only 3,000 tombstones voted.
