Herbert Cautions Against Republican Complacency
State Treasurer John Herbert urged Athens County Republicans to reject complacency in the upcoming election. Speaking at Shade School he warned against overconfidence from national polls favoring Nixon and urged support for Republican candidates including Miller, with a push for a larger GOP House presence if the presidential race is decided there. A kickoff for Gilligan’s Senate bid was announced for Bentley Hall, while a list of speeding and license violations was released as a local roll call.

Gilligan Son Campaigns In Athens County For Father
Don Gilligan, a 21 year old Harvard senior, campaigns on the Ohio University campus advocating his father John Gilligan against Republican William Saxbe for the Ohio Senate seat. He says Saxbe must win 75 percent of rural votes, which are about 23 to 24 percent of the electorate, to prevail. He notes his father’s Dove stance draws flak and support, and mentions Farm issues, Humphrey, and local candidate ties.
