What made the debates in 1960 different from earlier debates?
In 1960 television and appearance became an important factor. Richard Nixon won the debate as far as those only listening over the radio were concerned. John F. Kennedy won the debate as far as those observing it on television were concerned. Since for the first time in the history of presidential debates more people observed the debates on television than simply listened to them on radio, Kennedy won the debates. Actually Kennedy won the election due to tombstones voting in Chicago, however if it had not been close in the rest of the nation, Chicago would not have mattered. Ever since then proposals have been made for each congressional district to have one electoral vote. Then no matter how many tombstones vote in Chicago, it will only affect those electoral districts.
