Iowa 7th District Democratic Committee vacancy remedy
Iowa Atty. Gen. Evan Hultman ruled that counties lacking a Democratic Central Committee representative in the 7th District may reconvene the 1962 county convention to fill the vacancy. State Rep. Bernard Murphy raised the question after noting several counties did not elect a Central Committee member in 1962. The committee must set a time and place to hold a district convention for selecting a Democratic nominee for Congress, as no candidate cleared 35 percent in the June 1 primary.
