Minnesota Democrats back Shriver for VP bid
Minnesota's five Democratic National Committee members are expected to back R Sargent Shriver as vice presidential running mate to Sen. George McGovern. The committee meets Tuesday in Washington to vote on the choice. Ann M. Ober of Lake Crystal won the fifth Minnesota seat on the committee after a runoff, reflecting enduring intra party divisions between Humphrey supporters and the Liberal Coalition. Ober's background includes farming roots, leadership roles in the DFL and state boards.
