In the 1968 presidential election, George C. Wallace did not explicitly use the term "silent majority" to describe his supporters, as that phrase was popularized by Richard Nixon. However, Wallace's campaign appealed to a segment of the population that felt overlooked and marginalized, particularly regarding issues like civil rights and law and order. He positioned himself as a voice for those who were discontented with the political establishment, similar to the sentiments expressed by Nixon's "silent majority." Thus, while Wallace's rhetoric resonated with some of the same voters, he did not directly claim to represent the silent majority.
