Title	Senator Henry M. Jackson standing on a balcony in New York City, New York, February 1976
Date	1976
Notes	This photograph was possibly taken before New York's April 6 presidential primary, in which Jackson was running for the Democratic nomination.
Contextual Notes	Senator Henry M. Jackson ran for the Democratic presidential nomination twice, in 1972 and 1976, but was defeated both times. In 1972, North Dakota Senator George McGovern won the Democratic ticket over Jackson and Alabama Governor George C. Wallace but lost the presidential race to Richard Nixon. In 1976, Jackson waged a strong campaign against former Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter, but it was not strong enough to defeat Carter. On May 1, 1976, Jackson announced that he was pulling out of the race. Carter went on to defeat President Gerald Ford and become the 39th president.
