The split of the Democratic Party in the late 1960s was primarily driven by deep divisions over civil rights, the Vietnam War, and social issues. The party's increasing support for civil rights alienated many Southern Democrats, who opposed desegregation and racial integration. Additionally, anti-war sentiments among progressive factions clashed with more traditional, conservative party members, leading to further fragmentation. These tensions culminated in a divided convention in 1968 and paved the way for the rise of the Republican Party in subsequent elections.
