New Jersey Is Big Question Mark In Campaign
The piece reports Frazier Hunt’s nonpartisan survey of New Jersey and Pennsylvania voting sentiment in 1936. It describes Roosevelt’s appeal among urban workers, class politics in Philadelphia, and the shifting basis of support in the industrial east as New Jersey nears a tight presidential race. It notes Hoffmans and Lindbergh’s shadow, WPA relief, and potential Roosevelt strength in Philadelphia and statewide outcomes based on regional trends.
