Humphrey Faces 1964 Nomination Hurdles
Humphrey told reporters in Huron on Tuesday he would not enter any state for the vice presidential race. He believes strong labor and business backing will come after President Johnson announced he would not seek renomination. He expects southern support and says backers of Johnson are aiding his bid. He notes some Johnson allies have withheld commitments, which he sees as favorable. Budget constraints mean nationwide campaigning will start after his official announcement as Kenneth Burkhead leads a hurried campaign team.
