GOP Triumphs Seen Likely In Old Confederate States
A five week pre election survey by United Press International predicts Republican gains across the Deep South. Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Mississippi show the strongest optimism, with Tennessee a possibility, Carolina states doubtful, and Virginia unlikely. Possible outcomes include one to two governors, one to three U.S. senators, and up to 13 new congressmen, plus more legislative seats in several states. In Georgia, Maddox’s victory is blamed on white backlash to civil rights, anti Johnson sentiment, and cross over votes from Republicans. Florida features a tight race for governor between Claude King and Robert High. Alabama hopes center on Jim Martin challenging Mrs. Wallace and John Sparkman faces high stakes. South Carolina sees Thurmond and Watson favored for reelection.
