Nixon favored to be lone GOP nomination at convention
The 1976 Republican National Convention is expected to nominate Nixon with a major split over a conservative backed delegate reapportionment and a separate abortion proposal. McCloskey was dropped as a rival when his bid to name a New Mexico delegate failed while Tower backed plan passes. Salinger discussed Hanoi prisoner release but no change in Hanoi’s stance was found. Johnson endorses McGovern, Shriver gains San Francisco welcome, while Nixon faces intra party debate on large vs small state power.
