Montanans Nominate Him Anyway McCarthy Nixes 4th Party Bid
The Associated Press reports Sen. Eugene J. McCarthy rejects forming a fourth party but Montana's New Reform Party nominates him as its presidential candidate. McCarthy plans no official approval in states needing it and urges supporters to back senators opposing the Vietnam war and domestic priorities. He asks that his name be withdrawn in Iowa to avoid affecting Gov. Harold Hughes' Senate race. Former Democratic National Chairman Stephen Mitchell will support Humphrey, while Gov. John McKeithen will not due to Supreme Court policy differences. Wallace urges mainstream Americans to vote and to help register unregistered voters.
