Voters chose 12 representatives, or electors to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.Virginia voted for the Republican nominee, incumbent Vice President Richard Nixon, over the Democratic nominee, Senator John F. Kennedy. Kennedy ultimately won the national election with 49.72% of the vote. This is the first time a Democrat was elected president without carrying the state of Virginia, and the only time between 1924 and 1976 that Virginia backed the losing candidate.As of the 2020 presidential election[update], this is the last occasion when Appomattox County, Campbell County, Lunenburg County, Mecklenburg County and Pittsylvania County have voted for a Democratic presidential candidate.[1]Results[edit]  Results by county[edit]County or Independent CityRichard Milhous NixonRepublicanJohn Fitzgerald KennedyDemocraticC.
