McGovern '84

After a devastating loss in 1972, it seemed to many that McGovern's Presidential ambitions were crushed. But in an extremely fractured Democratic primary, McGovern would win a surprise upset in the Iowa caucus and would once again win the Democratic nomination. Democrats expected the worst, fearing another landslide defeat, but McGovern beat Reagan in the 1984 Presidential Election in one of the biggest upset victories in American history.
