Roosevelt Aims for Ohio Delegates at Chicago Convention
Walter Brown, state Republican chairman, says Taft will lose 15 to 21 districts, securing Roosevelt about 30 of Ohio’s 48 delegates. Roosevelt may miss the six delegates at large as convention selections rely on county machines Taft controls. La Follette shows in a few precincts but likely won’t gain delegation seats. Harmon struggles to maintain support with Wilson leading in cities while Harmon wins small towns. About 30 percent of Republicans voted. Democrats showed less interest.
