Georgia 48' probably had something to do with old fashioned media coverage. Back in that time and before, the local media was what told people whom the candidates were. Maybe it was because they didn't consider Thurmond to be the true democrat.

As for 68' South Carolina had probably moved our of the deep south. Maybe Humphrey campaigned there.

I'd say Mississippi and Alabama have the most Southern voting record, and will continue to. Neither went for Clinton ever, and the two have voted identically except for 1840.

Mississippi wasn't readmitted. That doesn't really count though, the two states will always vote identically.
