...actual result of the election as decided in the House is of no importance. The two parties will pick one of their own (read: Humphrey or Nixon) to be President. It is even possible that Republicans in New York would elect a slate of electors who would bolt, to the man, from Nixon to Rockefeller giving him forty-three electoral votes which would be hypothetically more than the candidate who finished third thereby making Rockefeller one of the three Constitutional candidates for the office and the eventual compromise pick for President...
