The 1964 presidential campaign of Barry Goldwater began when United States Senator Barry Goldwater of Arizona elected to seek the Republican Party nomination for President of the United States to challenge incumbent Democratic President Lyndon B. Johnson.
Early on, before officially announcing his candidacy for the presidency, Goldwater was accused by Governor of New York Nelson Rockefeller of attempting to galvanize Southern and Western Republican support while neglecting the industrial northern states, eventually becoming one of Goldwater\'s primary opponents in the race for the Republican Party\'s nomination in 1964.
From the beginning of his campaign, Goldwater fought an uphill battle to unseat an incumbent president under favorable economic circumstances.
Goldwater consistently refused to moderate his views, which alienated a significant portion of the more moderate wing of the Republican Party from his campaign. With the assistance of the media, who in large part also had an unfavorable opinion of Goldwater, President Johnson used this fissure in the party to portray him as an extremist.
In the general election, Goldwater lost in a landslide to Lyndon Johnson, carrying only six states to Johnson\'s 44 and 38% of the popular vote to Johnson\'s 61%. The election marked a turning point in history, as the Republicans carried the Deep South, which was widely considered to be in Democratic territory.
