Blacks Push Own Favorite Candidate At Democratic Convention
Black delegates at the Democratic National Convention push Reverend Channing Phillips as a protest write-in on the first ballot. Leaders admit the move unlikely to dent front runner Hubert H. Humphrey’s path to the nomination. Rep. John Conyers Jr. announces the plan, while Rep. Charles Diggs Jr. says he backs Humphrey. Phillips, 44, once led a DC coalition that backed Kennedy’s and McCarthy’s rivals, now seeks to represent black and poor interests amid ongoing party divisions. The convention later votes to divide delegation among regular forces and an integrated challenger group.
