“I shall not seek, and I will not accept” was just five months before the 1968 convention.
I stand corrected!
Though in 1968, the primary schedule was several weeks later than it was now, so when LBJ withdrew only 5 states had voted. The Bobby Kennedy assassination probably contributed to convention chaos more than LBJ’s withdrawal, because Kennedy’s delegates had to choose between Humphrey and McCarthy.
