Governors on the national ticket face hurdles at conference
At a New Orleans national conference, Gov. Wendell Anderson of Minnesota urged governors to enter the primaries while noting strong contenders like Rhode Island’s Philip Noel and Florida’s Reubin Askew who say they do not want the vice presidency. Utah Gov. Calvin Rampton voiced cautious interest but saw little chance. Governors’ state focus and limited downtime from national campaigning complicate a presidential bid.
