This was the last election until 2020 in which the Democratic presidential nominee won both Arizona and Georgia in the same cycle (Bill Clinton won Arizona in 1996 and Georgia in 1992 respectively) as well as the last time Colorado and Arizona voted for the Democratic nominee until 2020. In addition, Thurmond's 2.4% is the lowest popular vote percentage for a candidate who won all of a state's electoral votes. The 1948 presidential election contrasted with other elections across the world during this period, for Truman was a war leader who managed to win re-election (Churchill and De Gaulle both left office shortly after the end of the war).
