the third party candidate for the 1960 election was Governor George Corley Wallace of Alabama
The best example of a spoiler was in 1912 when former Republican president, Theodore Roosevelt ran as a third party candidate. He and Taft together got more than enough votes to beat the Democrat Wilson but by the splitting the votes they gave Wilson the win.
A third party candidate might win presidency because in this system, rather than voting for one and only one candidate, you can vote for as many candidates as you want.

Theodore Roosevelt was the Republican Party candidate in 1904 and the Progressive Party candidate in 1912. That was the last time the candidate of a party other than the Republican Party or the Democratic Party came in 2nd in a U. S. Presidential election.
The first successful third party candidate in the United States was Abraham Lincoln, who ran as a Republican in the 1860 presidential election and won. His victory marked a significant shift in American politics as it was the first time a third party candidate had won the presidency.
