Taft Sherman Ticket Nomination at Chicago Convention
The Republican Convention in Chicago nominated James Schoolcraft Sherman of New York for vice president on the first ballot alongside Taft. Sherman, Utica businessman and Hamilton College law graduate, served as Utica mayor in 1883 and has been a long-time congressman from the 27th district with rare reelection gaps. Despite a strong speaking style and parliamentary skill, his nomination is seen as weaker than possible picks like Dolliver Kort or Gaild for boosting Taft’s strength.
