by relative I mean compared to the national average.
Could this be it?
Miller County, GA:
1960: Kennedy 94.7% Nixon 5.3%
Kennedy by 89.4. Nationwide was Kennedy was 0.17. 89.23 points more Democratic than the national average
1964: Johnson 14.2% Goldwater 85.8%
Goldwater by 71.6. Nationwide was Johnson by 22.58. 94.18 more Republican than the national average.
That's a shift of 183.41 points and since that's out of 200 (since you have 100 on each side), it means there was a 91.705% shift!
