Wallace's 1968 campaign plans cite multi state moves
Wallace State campaign aides say Wallace may target Tennessee next if the primary is moved earlier. He plans brief stays in each state with multiple speaking events, and shows no sign of a third party bid in Alabama or elsewhere. To win Alabama's nine electoral votes he would need the Democratic nomination, which appears unlikely as nominees are pledged to the Miami Beach winner. A new Alabama law requires 5 000 signatures to form a new party by March 1, but Wallace supporters have not pursued signatures.
