Nixon got 32% of the black vote in 1960 (lost to John Kennedy).

Got 15% of black vote in 1968 (defeated Hubert Humphrey).

Not sure about 1972 (defeated George McGovern), I've read different things - that he won 20%, or 18%, or 13%; 1972 was such a huge landslide victory for Nixon, that I'm guessing the 18 or 20 percent marks are closer to the truth.
