Democrats to test alternate seating rule at Linn County sheriff caucus
At the Linn County Democratic convention the contested alternate seating plan will be used to fill absent delegates from presidential preference groups. Rita Huber, county chair, says the rule mirrors the state party constitution and national guidelines. Nominating speeches will be six minutes, with balloting to determine the nominee, and alternates may be chosen for absent delegates. The event, led by Tom Miller as chairman, draws 418 delegates, though turnout is expected light. ON THIS DATE in 1967 Communist China announced its hydrogen bomb test.
