To give insight to the "more Republicans voted for the Civil Rights Act" soundbite: Introduced by a Democrat, asked for by a President who was a Democrat, and in numbers, more Democrats voted for the Act. The Republican percentage is higher because there were less of them, and the Southern Democrats weighed the numbers by percentage. Control for region of the country. A DEMOCRATIC victory.
