White May Be Candidate for Maine Governor 1920
Augusta reports a growing Republican push to nominate Congressman Wallace T. White Jr. for governor in 1920. White has not sought the post, but party pressure could lead him to consider. If he runs, a Maine delegation vacancy may arise, possibly filling Sagadahoc County with a favorite son, while the GOP’s 1920 prospects look strong.
