Reagan Seeks All Out Northeast Campaign In 1980 Run
Ronald Reagan said he will wage an all out general election campaign in the Northeast if he wins the 1980 Republican nomination. Carter and Kennedy supporters clash as Kennedy campaigns in Minnesota while many Minnesota Democrats meet in Washington for a briefing. Reagan criticizes windfall profits tax and oil price controls while urging refinery expansion and quicker decontrol. He eyes Florida straw vote and plans to campaign in Detroit next July. Minnesota Secretary of State Joan Grove calls the Minnesota timing coincidental. Kennedy urges Senate action to align windfall tax with House version and to reclaim revenue shares.
