Description

"One of the greatest landslide victories in American political history"

TLS as president signed “RN,” 7 x 10.5, White House letterhead, November 30, 1972. Letter to Jack Dreyfus, in full: "As I look back to the results of November 7, I want you to now how deeply grateful I am for all that you did to help us win one of the greatest landslide victories in American political history. Only with your help were we able to get our message across to the millions of voters who supported us. I hope I soon will have the opportunity to thank you personally for your support. In the meantime, I can only assure you that over the next four years I shall do everything I possibly can to make a record which all Americans, regardless of party, will be proud of as we celebrate America's 200th Birthday in 1976." In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. The extreme left-wing status of democratic nominee George McGovern, and the early withdrawal of his initial running mate Thomas Eagleton, resulted in a resounding victory for Nixon in the 1972 United States presidential election. His 60.7% of the popular vote was the fourth largest in presidential election history.
