Answer
The Carter-Mondale ticket defeated Gerald Ford and Bob Dole in the 1976 presidential election. The election was a close race, with Carter winning by just over 2% of the popular vote. However, Carter was able to win the Electoral College vote by a wide margin, 297 to 240. This was due in part to Ford's unpopularity following the Watergate scandal.
