John F. Kennedy's unpopularity in South Carolina stemmed primarily from his administration's civil rights policies, which some white South Carolinians viewed as too progressive and threatening to the status quo of racial segregation. His support for federal intervention in civil rights issues, including the enforcement of desegregation, alienated many Southern voters who opposed these changes. Additionally, economic challenges and the perception that his administration was not addressing local concerns further contributed to his declining popularity in the state.
