<P> In the fall campaign the Wallace - Taylor ticket made a Southern tour, where both Wallace and Taylor insisted on speaking to racially integrated audiences, in defiance of Southern custom and law at the time . In several North Carolina cities Wallace was hit by a total of "twenty - seven eggs, thirty - seven tomatoes, six peaches, and two lemons ." When he left the state he announced: "As Jesus Christ said, if at any time they will not listen to you willingly, then shake the dust off from your feet and go elsewhere ." He ate only in unsegregated restaurants, traveled with a black secretary, and in Mississippi had to be escorted by police for protection . His aide Clark Foreman admitted that Wallace wanted to stir up controversy for the publicity it would receive in more liberal areas in the North and West . As the campaign progressed, however, Wallace's crowds thinned and his standing in the polls dropped . Wallace was hurt by the successful effort of labor unions to keep their members in the Democratic column, and by controversial statements from Progressives supporting "appeasement with Russia ." Wallace himself attacked Winston Churchill as a "racist" and "imperialist", and Senator Taylor earned criticism for a speech in which he claimed that the "Nazis are running the US government . So why should Russia make peace with them? If I were a Russian...I would not agree to anything...we are aggressively preparing for war ." </P> <P> The Wallace - Taylor ticket finished in fourth place in the election, winning 1,157,328 votes (2.4%). This was slightly less than the States' Rights Party, but the Progressive Party received no electoral votes . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Td_colspan="30"> States' Rights Democratic Party Ticket, 1948 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Strom Thurmond </Th> <Th> Fielding L.
