He secured the Democratic nomination as a dark horse little known outside his home state before narrowly defeating Republican incumbent Gerald Ford in the general election.

Our library holds 385 politicians with a computed Vedic chart from reliable birth data. 24 of them (6%) have the Moon in Cancer, like Jimmy Carter, and 9 (2%) share the Ashlesha Nakshatra — the #24 most common Moon Nakshatra among politicians, where Uttara Bhadrapada leads with 25 (6%).
For scale, an even spread would put about 3.7% in each of the 27 Nakshatras and 8.3% in each Moon sign. These are simple counts from our dataset, not a prediction.
